1 Peter3:10
Verſe 10. Love life] Man is [non-Latin text not transcribed], a creature that loves life, ſaith Ariſtotle. Who is the man that willeth life? ſaith David, Pſal. 34 12. And hereunto every man will be ready to anſwer, Ego, I doe, as Auſtin obſerveth. But when the condition ſhall be added, Cohibe linguam, &c. Refrain thy tongue, &c. then, ſaith he, ſcarce any will appear, or accept the motion.
And ſee good daies] That is, Proſperous and peaceable daies: for all the daies of the afflicted are evil, Prov. 15.15. a joyleſſe life is no life. Rebecca was weary of her life, and ſo was Eliah when he ſat under the Juniper. Multi etiam magni viri ſab Elia Juniper[illegible: 1 letter] ſedent: It is many a good mans caſe.
