Raglan Castle

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

An old Dog will learn no Tricks; If you trust before you try, You may repent before you die.

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