Luke de Beaulieu : ウィキペディア英語版 | Luke de Beaulieu
Luke de Beaulieu (d. 1723) was a Huguenot exile and cleric in England. ==Life== De Beaulieu was educated at the University of Saumur. Obliged to quit his country on account of his religion, he sought refuge in England about 1667, settled there, and rapidly became known as an acute and learned ecclesiastic. In November 1670 he received the vicarage of Upton-cum-Chalvey, Buckinghamshire, having a short time before been elected divinity reader in St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle. Beaulieu obtained an act of naturalisation in June 1682. A year later we find him acting as chaplain to the infamous Judge Jeffreys, an office which he continued to hold till the revolution brought his patron's career to a close. Meanwhile he had become a student at Oxford in 1680, "for the sake of the public library", says Wood, but be does not seem to have permanently lived there. As a member of Christ Church he look the degree of B.D. 7 July 1685, and in October the same year was presented by Jeffreys to the rectory of Whitchurch, near Reading. He had resigned his living of Upton in 1681. He was installed prebendary of St. Paul's 17 January 1686-7, and on the following 21 May, Prebendary of Gloucester, promotions which he again owed to the lord chancellor. Beaulieu is chiefly known as the author of a remarkably eloquent and original manual of devotion, entitled "Claustrum Animæ, the Reformed Monastery, or the Love of Jesus", two parts, duodecimo, London, 1677-76, which reached a fourth edition in 1699. This little work is dedicated, under the initials of L. B., to Dr. John Fell, bishop of Oxford, who was also dean of Christ Church, and to whom the author expresses himself under obligations. Beaulieu was afterwards chosen one of the bishop's chaplains.
