George Leo Haydock, on Prov 7:22

George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Prov 7:22 · Douay-Rheims
“Immediately he followeth her as an ox led to be a victim, and as a lamb playing the wanton, and not knowing that he is drawn like a fool to bonds,”
On this verse:
“Lamb. Protestants, “fool to the correction of the stocks,” (Haydock) or “like a shackle ( abs. ) for the chastisement of a fool.” (Mont.[Montanus?]) — Interpreters have read different words. (Calmet) — Sinners who have given way to temptations, are as inconsiderate as oxen, or birds which hasten to their own ruin. (Worthington)”
