8. Hooker, "_Schismaticorum Malleus_," Bp. H. King's Letter to Iz. Walton. 9. Peter Gunning, "_Schismaticorum Malleus_." (Barwick's _Life_, p. 22. Latin ed.) 10. Archbishop Usher, "_Errorum malleus_." (Univ. of Oxford. Parr's _Life of Usher_, p. 101.) 11. Henry Hammond, _Errorum maleus, &c._. (Lloyd's _Memoires_, p. 401.) 12. Dean Comber, "_falsi Malleus_". (Ib. v. 450.) The reader will at once recollect "The hammer of the whole earth," in Jeremiah, L. 23. Grotius, in his note on the "_Malleus_ universæ terræ" of that passage, says,-- "Sic vocat Chaldæos, pari de causâ ut ob quam Francorum quidam dictus est _Martellus_". Compare George Herbert of Lord Bacon,--"Sophismatum _Mastix ... Securis_ que errorum," &c. &c. (_Poems_, p. 253, ed. 1844.) Nor must we forget Attila, "the _scourge_ of God." R.A. _Charles Martel_ (Vol. i. p. 86.)--The following note may perhaps be acceptable in conjunction with that of G.J.K. (p. 86.), on Charles Martel. It is taken from Michelet's _History of France_, an easily accessible work. |
