Headword: *grhgo/rios
Adler number: gamma,453
Translated headword: Gregorios, Gregorius, Gregory
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Brother of Hermeias the philosopher. He was completely the opposite of Hermeias: intelligent in the extreme, and quick in his inquiries and his lessons; but otherwise he was not a peaceful soul nor did he have any serenity in his habits, rather he was somewhat disturbed. When they came from Athens to Alexandria, Gregorios afterwards fell ill quite seriously so that his mind became unwieldy [for reasoning] and generally defective. So says Damaskios in the Philosophical History.
