John Trapp on Proverbs 20:14

Verſ. 14. It is naught, it is naught, ſaith the buyer] Or, ſaith the poſſeſſour; and ſo Melancthon reads it: as taxing that common fault and folly of ſlighting preſent mercies, but deſiring and commending them when they are loſt. Virtutem incolumem odimus, ſublatam ex oculis quarimus invidi, Iſrael deſpiſed the pleaſant land, Pſal. 106.24. and the precious Manna, Numb. 11.6. and Solomons gentle Government, 1 King. 12.4. Our corrupt nature weighs not good things till we want them; as the eye ſees nothing that lyes upon it.
