John Trapp on Proverbs 19:3

Verſ. 3. The fooliſhneſs of a man perverteth his way] So that all goes croſs with him,Lev. 26.21. and God walks contrary to him; as it befell our King John, Queen Mary, and Henry the fourth of France. King John ſaw and acknowledged it in theſe words,Mat. Paris. Poſiquam, ut dixi, Deo reconciliatus, me ac mea regna (proh dolor!) Romanae ſubjeci Eccleſiae, nulla mihi proſpera, ſed omnia contraria advenerunt. Ever ſince I ſubmitted to the Sea of Rome, nothing hath proſpered with mee.

And his heart frets againſt the Lord] As the cauſe of his calamity. Birds of prey, that have been long kept in the dark, when they get abroad, are out of meaſure raging and ravenous; ſo are ignorant ſpirits, they let flye on all hands (when in durance eſpecially) and ſpare not to ſpit their venome in the very face of God; as did Pharaoh, when that thick darkneſs was upon him; the King of Iſrael that ſaid, Behold this evil is of the Lord, and what ſhould I wait for the Lord any longer? 2 King. 6.33. Mahomet the firſt Emperour of the Turks, being wonderfully grieved with the diſhonour and loſs hee had received at the laſt aſſault of Scodra, Turk hiſt. fol. 423. in his choler and frantick rage moſt horribly blaſphemed againſt God, ſaying, that it were enough for him to have care of heavenly things, and not to croſs him in his worldly actions.
