Coeptus fuit excudi Ecclesiastes, verum perficere non audet hic magnificus Rutgerus Rescius (Rutger Ressen) (*ca. 1497 – †1545), scholar and publisher from the southern Netherlands, professor of Greek at the Collegium Trilingue of Louvain, in 1531 printed Dantiscus' work Victoria serenissimi Poloniae Regis contra Voyevodam Muldaviae (AT 13, p. 336; CE, vol. 3. p. 142-144)R[u]gerius ReschiusRutgerus Rescius (Rutger Ressen) (*ca. 1497 – †1545), scholar and publisher from the southern Netherlands, professor of Greek at the Collegium Trilingue of Louvain, in 1531 printed Dantiscus' work Victoria serenissimi Poloniae Regis contra Voyevodam Muldaviae (AT 13, p. 336; CE, vol. 3. p. 142-144), professor Latinus, metuit enim, ne post abitum tuum vexetur ab iis, qui fisci rem curant et cogatur quadringentos pendere Caroleos. Venit isthuc, ut impetret privilegium quoddam generale per quosdam e familia legati apostolici. Quare, si forte poposcerit abs te Psalmos illos, quos habes, ut eos ostendat legato, ne, quaeso, nega illi, recipies enim brevissime.
