  1  Observations about fools;
13  about sluggards;
17  and about contentious busy-bodies.


VERSE 1
- in summer.
   * 1Sa 12:17,18

   * Ps 109:28


VERSE 3
   According to our notions, we should rather say, a bridle for
  the horse, and a whip for the ass; but it should be
  considered, that the Eastern asses are not only much more
  beautiful, but better goers that ours; and being active and
  well broken, they need only a bridle to guide them; whereas
  their horses being scarce, and often caught wild, and badly
  broken, are much less manageable, and need the correction of
  the whip.

   * Pr 10:13; 17:10; 19:25; 27:22 Jud 8:5-7 Ps 32:9 1Co 4:21 2Co 10:6
   * 2Co 13:2

VERSE 8 
 - bindeth a stone in a sling.  Heb. putteth a precious stone in
  a heap of stones.
  This probably refers, as Coverdale understands it, to the
  custom of throwing a stone to the heap under which a criminal
  was buried.  So the Vulgate, {Sicut qui mittit lapidem in
  acervum Mercurii; ita qui tribuit insipienti honorem,} "As he
  who throws a stone to Mercury's heap, so is he who gives
  honor to a fool."  Mercury was a heathen god of highways;
  and stones were erected in different parts to guide the
  traveller:  hence those lines of Dr. Young,

           "Death stands like Mercuries in every way;
           And kindly points us to our journey's end."
