Excerpt from Evangelical Biography, Or, an Historical Account of the Lives and Deaths of the Most Eminent and Evangelical Authors or Preachers, Both British and Foreign, Vol. 2 of 4: In the Several Denominations of Protestants, From the Beginning of the Reformation to the Present Time
When Calvin had published this book, he made a jour ney into Italy, to wait on the duchess of Ferrara, the daughter of Lewis XII. She was a princess of exemplary piety, and a favourer of the Reformation. Calvin met with a very gracious reception from her: But the duke of Ferrara would not suffer him to continue long with his duchess and he returned into France, to settle his affairs in that kingdom, from whence he prepared to set out for Strasburgh, or Basil, accompanied by Anthony Calvin, the only brother he had living.
