John Trapp on Hebrews 12:11

Verſe 11. The peaceable fruit of righteouſneſſe] That crown of righteouſneſſe wrought out unto us by afflictions, 2 Cor. 4.17. Theſe are the preludes of our triumph, yea a part of our ſalvation. Look therefore thorow the anger of Gods corrections, ſaith one, to the ſweetneſſe of his love therein, as by a rain-bow we ſee the beautifull image of the Suns-light in the midſt of a dark and wateriſh cloud. And look upon theſe afflictions as on ſo many wayward and touchy gueſts; which while they ſtay, watch every officer, but when they depart, they pay freely.
