Proverbs2:14
Verſ. 14. Who rejoyce to do evil] It is their meat, drink, ſport. Prov. 4.27▪ and 10.23. they cannot bee merry unleſs the Devil bee their play-fellow. This is reckoned as an aggravation of Jeruſalems ſin, Jer. 11.15. Melior eſt triſtitia iniqua patientis quam latitia iniqua facie[illegible: 1 letter]tis. When thou doſt evil, then thou rejoyceſt. But better is the ſorrow of him that ſuffereth evil, than the jollity of him that doth evil, ſaith Auſtin.
