John Trapp on Proverbs 3:17

Verſ. 17. Her waies are waies of pleaſantneſſe] Such as were thoſe of Adam before his fall, ſtrawed with Roſes, paved with Peace. Some degree of comfort follows every good action, as heat accompanies fire, as beams and influences iſſue from the Sun. Which is ſo true, that very Heathens, upon the diſcharge of a good conſcience, have found comfort and peace anſwerable. This (ſaith One) is praemium ante praemium, a fore-reward of well-doing. In doing thereof (not onely for doing thereof) there is great reward, Pſal. 19.11.
