Proverbs18:2
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding , but that his heart may discover itself .
In getting [illegible: 1+ letters]ound and saving knowledg, either by his own s[illegible: 1+ letters]udy, or by the instructions of wise and good men.
Heb. but (his delight is) in the discovery of his own heart, i. e. in uttering that folly and wickedness which is in his heart: being more forward to speak than to hear, which is one badge of a fool.
