Dionysius Andreas Freher (1649-1728)
A large quantity of MS writings (duplicates in B. M. and Dr Williams's
library), some few in Freher's hand, but mostly copied by his friend Leuchter,
They are commentaries on and expositions of Boehme, and were much prized
by Law, who himself copied out a number of them. Freher also left many
symbolical drawings, illustrating Boehme, which are very interesting. Some
of these were specially chosen out by Law,and
were reproduced in the edition
of Boehme's works (1764-81) which appeared after Law's death.
For some account of Freher by himself, see Walton's Notes and Materials,
p. 141, note; and, of his writings, with copious extracts from them, ibid.
