a Spanish Jesuit, was born at Salamanca in 1572. He joined his order in 1588, and went to Rome as procurator of Molina. Here he defended the doctrine of predestination as held by his order. Having returned to Spain, he was obliged to leave his order on account of some defect which debarred a candidate from becoming a member, but which was not known at the time of his entrance. Up to his death he was canon and professor primarieis at the University of Valladolid. See Meyer, Historia Congreg. de Auxiliis; Schneemann, in Wetzer u. Welte's Kirchenlexikon, s.v. (B.P.)
