A defense of the sincere and true translations of the holie Scriptures into the English tong against the manifolde cauils, friuolous quarels, and impudent slaunders of Gregorie Martin, one of the readers of popish diuinitie in the trayterous Seminarie of Rhemes. By William Fvlke D. in Diuinitie, and M. of Pembroke haule in Cambridge. Wherevnto is added a briefe confutation of all such quarrels & cauils, as haue bene of late vttered by diuerse papistes in their English pamphlets, against the writings of the saide William Fvlke.

FVLK. 12. Iacob sayde he would be ioyned to his sonne by death, as in the other text you bring, it is more manifest, than the Sunne at noone dayes. For Iacob speaking of his graye head, must needes meane of his bodie, and therefore of the graue, and not of Hell. So in the 3. Reg. 2. which you quote, Dauid chargeth Sa∣lomon, that he suffer not the gray head of Ioab, to goe downe to the graue in peace, and that he shall cause the hoare heade of Shemei to goe downe to the graue with bloud, which by no meanes can be vnderstoode of his soule going to hell, which goeth not with bloude, al∣though it is plaine enough by the word hoare head, that he meaneth his bodye in age, or his olde bodye. And this text Pagnine, in his Dictionarie, thought necessarie to be vnderstoode of the graue, although he make the worde Sheol indifferent to signifie Hell, and the Graue. That all went to Hell, some to reste, and some to tor∣mentes, it was firste deuised by Marcion, the Here∣tike. But Saint Hierome is once againe cited in O∣seam cap. 13. where he sayth, that Hell is a place where∣in soules are included, &c. by which you see that he speaketh not of Limbus, wherein soules were included before Christ, but of suche a place wherein they are nowe included, taking the worde Infernus, generally

for any place▪ that receiueth the soules of the departed, as he sayth most plainely him selfe, in the same place: Quicquid igitur separat sratres, infernus est appellandus. Whatsoeuer doth separate brethren▪ is to be called hell. Augustine is quoted, to multiply a lye, and for nothing else, as I haue shewed before.
