One good Turn deserves another; He steals a Goose, and gives the Giblets in Alms.

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

As you brew so you shall bake; Every bean has its Black; it is an ill wind that blows no body good

It’s neither Rhime nor Reason; What is got over the Devil’s Back will be spent under his Belly.

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.

A Fool’s Bolt is soon shot; Birds of a Feather flock together; Out of the Frying-Pan into the Fire.

Fast bind, fast find; Like Father like Son.

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

Sue a Beggar and catch a Louse; Many Hands make Light Work; [woodcut: well-dressed man scratches his head standing near a beggar with outstretched hat]

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

Hungry Dogs will eat dirty Pudding; He that would live at Peace and Rest, Must hear and see, and say the Best.

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
