Bede, on Prov 16:15

“In the cheerfulness of the king’s countenance is life: and his clemency is like the latter rain.”

“In the cheerfulness of the face is the life of the king. Whoever deserves to see the cheerful face of Christ, will be given to live with Him forever. Otherwise, on the day of judgment, as it is written, Every flesh will see the salvation of God. But then the reprobate will see Him angry, the just will see Him placid.”
