John Trapp on Proverbs 14:29

Verſ. 29. Hee that is ſlow to anger, is of great underſtanding] The wiſdome from above is firſt pure, then peaceable, tractable, &c. Thunder, Hail, Tempeſt, neither trouble nor h[illegible: 2 letters] caeleſtial bodies. Anger may ruſh into a wiſe mans boſome, not reſt there, Eccleſ. 7.9. it dwells onely where it domineers, and that is onely where a fool is Maſter of the family. A wiſe man either receives it not, or ſoon rids it. Bee ſlow to wrath, [non-Latin text not transcribed], ira, horror, furor, wrath, war, jar, ſtrife, &c. is a leſſon that God hath engraven (as one wittily obſerveth) in our very nature. For the laſt letter that any childe ordinarily ſpeaketh is R. and that's the radical letter of all words of ſtrife and wrath, almoſt in all languages.

But hee that is haſty of ſpirit, exalteth folly] Hee ſets it up upon a pole, as it were; hee makes an Oyes, and proclaims his own folly, by his ireful looks, words, geſtures, actions, as that furious Fryar Feuardenſius doth in his book called Theomachia Calviniſtica; where hee took up his Pen with as much paſſion and wrath, as any ſouldier takes up his ſword. Such another haſty fool was Fryar Alphonſus the Spaniard, who reaſoning with Mr. Bradford Martyr,Act. & Mon. was in a wonderful rage chafing with Om, and Cho; ſo that if Bradford had been any thing hot, one houſe could not have held them.
