His son, Thomas Digges, is known chiefly as the editor of his father's works. The extraordinary talent of the members of this family in all branches of mathematics excited the admiration of De Morgan, who speaks of them as follows:"One of the most important names connected with the advancement of English mathematical science in the sixteenth century is that of Digges." A spy-glass, jealously hidden from the eyes of would-be imitators, was supposed to have been in their possession. 771 DIOPHANTI ALEXANDRINI. Arithmeticorum libri cum commentariis C. G.
