After sweet Meat comes sour Sauce; [woodcut of stout man, seated, with bandaged foot]
One good Turn deserves another;  He steals a Goose, and gives the Giblets in Alms.

An old Dog will learn no Tricks; If you trust before you try, You may repent before you die.
Nothing venture, nothing have; Virtue which parleys is near a Surrender.
Many Words will not fill a Bushel;  The younger Brother the better Gentleman.
One scabbed Sheep marrs a whole Flock;  Tread on a Worm and it will turn.
Well begun is half ended;  All is well that ends well.
A Shoemaker must not go beyond his Last
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
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]
A scan of blank paper for use in backgrounds (public domain)
A Rolling Stone gathers no Moss;  It is good to make Hay while the Sun shines.
When the Steed’s stolen, shut the Stable Door.
Near is my Shirt, but Nearer is my Skin.
’Tis too late to spare when all is spent;  One Swallow does not make Summer.
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]
To buy a Pig in a poke;  Robin Hood’s Pennyworths;  He looks one way and rows another.
The more Haste the worse Speed;  When the Sky falls we shall catch Larks.
He makes a Rod for his own Breech.
It’s neither Rhime nor Reason; What is got over the Devil’s Back will be spent under his Belly.
Give a Man Luck and throw him into the Sea;  Money makes the Mare to go;  Much falls between the Cup and the Lip.
Better play at small Game than stand out;  Give him a Rowland for his Oliver.
Fat Paunches make Lean Pates.
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]
Give him a Rowland for his Oliver;  Penny Wise, and Pound Foolish;  He that Reckons without his Host must reckon again.
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.
Need makes the old Wife trot;  [woodcut: barefoot old woman hitches up skirts to cross a stream]
Fast bind, fast find;  Like Father like Son.
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.
