John Trapp on Proverbs 25:28

Verſ. 28. He that hath no rule over his own ſpirit] Cui non eſt cohibitio in ſpiritum ſuum, that reigns not in his unruly affections, but ſuffers them to run riot in ſin, as ſo many head-ſtrong Horſes, or to ride upon the backs one of another, like Kine in a ſtraight. This man being not fenced with the wall of Gods fear, lies open to all aſſaults of Satan and other enemies, Epheſ. 4.26, 27. Jam. 4.7. as Laiſh, Judg. 18. or Hazor, that had neither gates nor bars, Jer. 49.31. or the Hague in Holland, which the inhabitants will not wall,Heyl. Geog. as deſiring to have it counted rather the principal Village of Europe, than a leſſer City.
