'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Guillaume Postel}}'''. A French adept, born in Normandy in 1510. His learning brought him to the notice of Francis I., who sent him to the Levant in search of occult MSS., where he was received into and initiated by an Eastern Fraternity. On his return to France he became famous. He was persecuted by the clergy and finally imprisoned by the Inquisition, but was released by his Eastern brothers from his dungeon. His ''Clavis Absconditorum,'' a key to things hidden and forgotten, is very celebrated. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Guillaume Postel}}'''. A French adept, born in Normandy in 1510.
