- Huygens . Oeuvres , 10 168 – 168 . Huygens wrote a few marginal notes in his copy of Ango's book. They will soon be published in Studia Leibnitiana. The last marginal note of Huygens (on the back cover) reads: ‘It is a bad author … He had done much better by giving simply what he had at hand from the writings of Father Pardies’.
