- Apologia Ecclesiae Anglicanae, 1562, Londini [Collophon on last page of text: Apud Reginaldum vvolfium]. The last page of the volume reads: Londini, ad Aeneum Serpentum, Anne (to the bronze serpent, Anne) [BKG Note: This appears to be an elegant Jewel compliment to his translator: in Numbers 21:8–9 the Lord told Moses to make a serpent of brass to heal those who looked at it.]
- An apologie or answere in defence of the Churche of Englande with a briefe and plaine declaration of the true religion professed and vsed in the same, 1564, [Anne Bacon, tr.]; the colophon on the last page of text reads: Imprinted at London in Paules churche yard, at the signe of the Brasen serpent, by Reginalde Wolfe; clawback (text: "his soothing pages and claw-backs" in Part 3; Dict.: "The Pope's clawbacks.") [BKG Note: the dedication is to A.B. by M.C. (the DNB says by Archbishop Matthew Parker)]
