Ecclesiastes7:9

9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry : for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.

Be not angry with any man without due consideration, and just and necessary cause; for otherwise anger is somtimes lawful, and somtimes a duty.

Hath its settled and quiet abode, is their constant companion, ever at hand upon all occasions, whereas wise Men resist, and mortifie, and banish it.

In the Heart, the proper seat of the passions.

Marginal references: Pro. 14. 17. & 16. 32.
