We conclude in our readings the book of Proverbs. Not all of these later proverbs were written by Solomon. Some seem to have been copied out by later kings from scattered writings of Solomon, but all are good. They are compacted sentiments of wisdom, most of them very simple and easily understood, inviting the remark of a conceited young English divine, who told his bishop that the proverbs of Solomon were very ordinary, and that he himself could write them. The reply of the bishop was, "Make a few," but we have no record that the young man ever accomplished anything in this line. Our Sabbath reading is the mighty, triumphant Psalms 46, 47, 48.
