  1. Proverbs

    A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    Far away fields look green.
    Sense does not come when you are old.
    Thos that have no sense the worlk will learn them sense.
    If candlemas day is fair and clear the half of the winter will come that year.
    Never put off till to morrow what yo ucan do today.
    Every hound is a put until it hunts.
