Proverbs25:20
20 As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather , and as vinegar upon nitre ; so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart .
When it is most seasonable and necessary.
Which dissolves the Nitre, and makes it useless and ineffectual.
He is no less absurd and impertinent.
Whose grief is not relieved but increased by it, as common experience sheweth, and divers learned Authors have observed.
