John Trapp on Psalms 88:5

Verſ. 5. Free among the dead] Free of that company,A mundo manumiſſus. one of the Many among the Manes, or Ghoſts; a free denizon of that ſociety, of that moiety of mankind that are dead. Yea, I am mortuorum minimus, as R. Jonah rendreth it, according to the Arabick.

Like the ſtain that lye in the grave] That are thrown on heaps into a pit, as after a field fought.R. David.

Whom thou remembrest no more] As to this preſent world, and as it way ſeem to others, with whom out fo ſight, out of mind, dead folk are ſoon forgotten. Varro thinks Lethum death, hath its name [non-Latin text not transcribed], from forgetfulneſs; becauſe they which have now forgotten all the world, ſhould ſoon be forgotten of the world.

And they are cut off from thine hand] Thy providence over them in matters belonging to life is at an end.
