’Tis too late to spare when all is spent; One Swallow does not make Summer.

Better play at small Game than stand out; Give him a Rowland for his Oliver.

The Traceys have always the Wind in their Faces; To cut large Thongs out of another Man’s Leather; Too much of one Thing is good for nothing

To buy a Pig in a poke; Robin Hood’s Pennyworths; He looks one way and rows another.

As sure as God’s in Gloucestershire; Every Man thinks his own Geese Swans.

Save a Thief from Hanging, and he’ll cut your Throat; Jack will never make a Gentleman.

The more Haste the worse Speed; When the Sky falls we shall catch Larks.

What is bred in the Bone will never be out of the Flesh; One Bird in the Hand is worth two in the Bush; A Cat may look upon a king.

Well begun is half ended; All is well that ends well.

He who has a mind to beat a Dog will easily find a Stick; Naught is never in Danger; Faint Heart never won fair Lady.

A Burnt Child dreads the Fire

One scabbed Sheep marrs a whole Flock; Tread on a Worm and it will turn.

Little Pitchers have great Ears; Many talk of Robin Hood who never shot in his Bow.
