    Throwing a herring to catch a hake...

    (continued from previous page)
    A green Christmas makes a rich graveyard.
    An egg is better today than an ox tomorrow.
    There is no herbal cure for death.
    A long thread is the sign of a lazy tale.
    Ill habits gather by unseen degrees as brooks make rivers and rivers run to seas.
    On candlemas day, throw your candles and candlesticks away.
