Response to Foster's Weapon-Salve Sponge

Only partial translations or excerpts exist. This is the first complete English translation.

The author, Robert Fludd, explicitly states in the Latin text (1638) that he had previously published this response in English and then converted it to Latin for this edition. While the original English version ("The Spongia, or, A defence of the weapon-salve") exists, the Latin text itself—which is the specific work being verified—has not been translated back into English. Therefore, this Latin edition represents a distinct version of the work that lacks a modern English translation.
