- (continued from previous page)Many hands make light work.
Tell a story to a jackass and jackass galloping.
Patience and perseverance takes a snail to Jerusalem.
Rap with your nose till the porter comes.
The king might come the cadger's way yet.
Beg from a beggar and you will never be rich.
Tell a story to a riddle and the riddle will let it through.
- Hunger is a good sauce.
A constant drop will wear a hole in a stone.
Never put back till to morrow what you can do to-day.
Bought wit is dear wit.
Don't buy a pig in a poke.(continues on next page) - Collector
