    (9) Is glas iad na cnuic i bfad uainn ach ní féarmhar

    (10) Maireann an craobh ar an bhfalla ach ní mhaireann an lámh do cuir

    (11) Nuair is cruaidh do'n cailligh caitheann sí rith
    (12) An áit a mbíonn bó, bíonn bean

    (13) Biadh agus deoc um Nodlaig agus éadach nuadh um Cháisg

    (14) Níl luibh na léigheas in aghaidh an bháis
    (15) Níl aon teinteán mar do theinteán féin
    (16) Seacht seachtmhaine reamhra ó Shamhain go Nodlaig

    (17) Dá mbeadh Samhrad go Samhain beadh breall ar duine éigin

    (18) Ní theigheann doineann thar Domnach ná rabharta thar Ceadaoin

    (19) Cuairt geárr an cuairt is fearr
    (20) An capall is mó mairc is mó a léimeann
    (21) Muna mbeidh sé tirim is fliuc is fearr é
