    (26) Ná leig do rún le bun an claidhe go seasfaidh tú ar a bhárr

    (27) Is fearr breac sa bpota na bradán san abhainn
    (28) Fear gan plan, ní bhfuigheadh sé bean
    (29) Umhan ná taoile ní fhanfaidh le aoine

    (30) An duine nach n-ólann acht uisge, ní bhionn se ar meisge

    (31) Is maith an bádóir, an té atá ar an talamh
    (32) Díthchéille an rud do bhain ná mearacha de Murchadha

    (33) An té nach bhfuighfidh an feoil, is mór is fiú an t-anbhruith

    (34) Is iomda cor a chuireanns lá Earraigh de

    (35) An té a dteigheann cáll moch-eirighthe amach air, ní mhisde dó codladh go tratnóna

    (36) Ab té nach gcuireann san Earrach, ni bhainfidh sé san bhFóghmhair

    (37) Ba minic comhairle maith ag amadán
    (38) Múin do'd mháthair le leite a deanamh
    (39) Nuair is fearr an greann, 'seadh is fearr leigint dó
    (40) Bionn an fhirinne searbh go minic
    (41) Ní creidtear an fhirinne o'n duine bréagach
    (42) Deanann spallai ballai chomh maith le clocha móra
    (43) Fághann an bhó bás mura mbionn féar ag fás
    (44) Buail an bóthair agus bain torann as
    (45) Ní maith an fear a bhionns an iomarca cabhailíní air

    (46) Is maith an cat a mharbhuigheanns a chuid feola fhéin

    (47) Níl aon capall mar do chapall fhéin
    (48) Is maith an fear a deananns a chuid oibre fhéin
