The turning of the stomach, and loss of appetite, are usual symptoms of sickness; Almost all sicknesses weaken the appetite, and some take it quite away, so that the patient not only hath no desire to, but loathes dainty meat, or meat of desire. This phrase or form of speaking is used (Dan: 10.3.) I (saith he) ate no pleasant bread, or no bread of desires (as we put in the margin) neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth. 'Tis used again (2 Chro: 32.27.) Hezekiah made himself treasuries for silver and gold, &c. and all manner of pleasant jewels; we put in the Margin, for all jewels of desire. So (Amos 5.11.) Pleasant vineyards, or vineyards of desire. It was the manner of the Hebrews to express pleasant by desirable, because pleasant things are much desired. His soul abhorreth meat of desire, or dainty meat.
