Proverbs10:16

Verſ. 16. The labour of the righteous, &c.] If the righteous man may but ſweat out a poor living, get enough to bear his charges home to Heaven, have enough to ſerve his turn here, bee it but food and raiment, hee is content. Cibus & potus ſunt divitiae Chriſtianorum. The true Chriſtian deſires but meat and drink.1 Tim. 6.8.

The fruit of the Wicked] Or the revenues of the wicked are waſted upon their luſts, which to ſeek to ſatisfie, is an endleſs labour: beſides the danger of fathomleſs perdition, 1 Tim. 6.4.
