Verſ. 5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver] That is, his houſe full of them, ſo they bee good children: for elſe to bee childleſs is a mercy, it is [non-Latin text not transcribed], a bleſſed miſery, ſaith Euripedes; and Ariſtotle concludeth that [non-Latin text not transcribed] is no bleſſing, unleſs it bee [non-Latin text not transcribed], that is, to have a numerous iſſue, unleſs they bee vertuous.
They ſhall not bee aſhamed] Neither Father nor Children: ſe enim illi mutuo muniunt ac firmant, they help each other.
But they ſhall ſpeak with their enemies] Periment, ſaith Tremellius, they ſhall foil them, and non-ſute them.
