...throughout his whole life, to the best of his ability, endeavored to please, in order to also receive from the same the worthy reward of his labor. And also Fol. 1391. When Sebastian Castellio, the most learned Teacher of the Greek language at the University of Basel and a true Israelite, was snatched by the kindness of God on the 27th of January, 1563, from the claws of his enemies, this honor was done to him: First, that he was carried on the shoulders of his juniors with a very large following to the grave and buried within the precincts of the largest Church, where three Poles of noble birth, namely Stanislaus Starzechonius, Ioannes Ostrorogus the Count, and Georgius Niemsle, out of special reverence, had an epitaph graf-schrift grave-writing/epitaph placed at their own expense for their most faithful teacher, so that I do not know that any greater honor can be done to a learned man of his kind; indeed, this further recommends the piety and praise of the most innocent man, who left behind eight children, oppressed by poverty and envy, yet there were found some (no less pious than rich people) who, for the love of the deceased, paid his debts which he had incurred in the need of heavy times, and undertook to raise his children at their own expense.
