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

One Man had better steal a Horse than another look over the Hedge; [woodcut: highayman with hat and cape leads a horse]

A scan of blank paper for use in backgrounds (public domain)

Proferred Service stinks; The Receiver is as bad as the Thief; Reckon not your Chickens before they are hatched.

A Rolling Stone gathers no Moss; It is good to make Hay while the Sun shines.

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.

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]

Harm watch, Harm catch; It is a good Horse that never stumbles.

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.

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

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

Fat Paunches make Lean Pates.

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.

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 Burnt Child dreads the Fire

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.

Good Wine needs no Bush; Kissing goes by Favour; A Lark is better than a Kite

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

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.

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

Fast bind, fast find; Like Father like Son.

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

He sets the Fox to keep his Geese. [woodcut: fox watching geese]

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.
