"The name of the author in Latin is in this anagram. Dives sicut ardens S***."--P. 147. ESTC suggests Sanctus Didiereus (i.e. Limojon de Saint-Didier).

The ancient war of the knights is a translation from the French version (by Limojon de Saint-Didier) of a Latin translation of the German original: Uralter Ritter-Krieg (cf. ESTC).

"A letter to the true disciples of Hermes" is also by Limojon de Saint-Didier.
