An old Dog will learn no Tricks; If you trust before you try, You may repent before you die.
After sweet Meat comes sour Sauce; [woodcut of stout man, seated, with bandaged foot]
Nothing venture, nothing have; Virtue which parleys is near a Surrender.
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
Well begun is half ended; All is well that ends well.
title page
Many Words will not fill a Bushel; The younger Brother the better Gentleman.
A Shoemaker must not go beyond his Last
Brag is a good Dog, but Holdfast is a better; The Belly has no Ears; [woodcut: mouse by house perhaps made from candle with snuffer]
One scabbed Sheep marrs a whole Flock; Tread on a Worm and it will turn.
One good Turn deserves another; He steals a Goose, and gives the Giblets in Alms.
It’s neither Rhime nor Reason; What is got over the Devil’s Back will be spent under his Belly.
Proferred Service stinks; The Receiver is as bad as the Thief; Reckon not your Chickens before they are hatched.
One Man had better steal a Horse than another look over the Hedge; [woodcut: highayman with hat and cape leads a horse]
When the Steed’s stolen, shut the Stable Door.
A scan of blank paper for use in backgrounds (public domain)
Near is my Shirt, but Nearer is my Skin.
The more Haste the worse Speed; When the Sky falls we shall catch Larks.
He makes a Rod for his own Breech.
To buy a Pig in a poke; Robin Hood’s Pennyworths; He looks one way and rows another.
A Rolling Stone gathers no Moss; It is good to make Hay while the Sun shines.
’Tis too late to spare when all is spent; One Swallow does not make Summer.
Fat Paunches make Lean Pates.
Hungry Dogs will eat dirty Pudding; He that would live at Peace and Rest, Must hear and see, and say the Best.
Harm watch, Harm catch; It is a good Horse that never stumbles.
Little Pitchers have great Ears; Many talk of Robin Hood who never shot in his Bow.
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.
Give him a Rowland for his Oliver; Penny Wise, and Pound Foolish; He that Reckons without his Host must reckon again.
Need makes the old Wife trot; [woodcut: barefoot old woman hitches up skirts to cross a stream]
Give a Man Luck and throw him into the Sea; Money makes the Mare to go; Much falls between the Cup and the Lip.
Good Wine needs no Bush; Kissing goes by Favour; A Lark is better than a Kite
He sets the Fox to keep his Geese. [woodcut: fox watching geese]
A Burnt Child dreads the Fire
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.
I talk of Chalk and you of Cheese; Charity begins at Home; Cut your Coat according to your Cloth; What can’t be cur’d must be endur’d.
Save a Thief from Hanging, and he’ll cut your Throat; Jack will never make a Gentleman.
As sure as God’s in Gloucestershire; Every Man thinks his own Geese Swans.
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.
Fast bind, fast find; Like Father like Son.
All goes down Gutter-lane; As Wise as a Man of Gotham; As good as George of Green; [woodcut: stout man drinks from mug, holds saussage with a fork]
A Fool’s Bolt is soon shot; Birds of a Feather flock together; Out of the Frying-Pan into the Fire.
Curs’d Cows have short Horns; Much falls between the Cup and the Lip. No longer pipe no longer dance.
As you brew so you shall bake; Every bean has its Black; it is an ill wind that blows no body good
