Poictiers.

Poictiers is an University, especially for the Civil Law, and a See Episcopal. It was erected under Charles VII. King of France, and confirmed by Pope Eugenius IV. Scaliger in his Cities thus speaks of it.

Si studium est animae, veniunt à corpore vires; Galliaque à meritis poscit utrumque sibi. Haec studiis, aliae belli exercentur amore. Pictavium est animus, caetera corpus erunt.

John Capnion, and Christophorus Longolius, were Professours here,
