Verſ. 10. Hee that winketh with the eye] That is, loath to ſtand to thoſe truths that ſhall bring him to ſuffering. Or hee that winketh wiles; for all winking is not condemned. See Joh. 13.34.

Cauſeth ſorrow] ſcil. To his own heart, ſinneth againſt his own ſoul: or cauſeth ſorrow, i. e. ſin, for ſo ſorrow is taken for ſin, Eccleſ. 11.10.

But a prating fool ſhall fall] Hee that runs himſelf upon needleſs danger, ſhall come to ruine. See Prov. 28.25. and the Note above, verſ. 8.
