- (continued from previous page)Practise makes perfect.
Look not a gift horse in the mouth.
People who live in glass houses cant throw stones.
Beware of those whose silence goes and seems to be a sleeper.
The smoother that the water runs the river is the deeper.
Marry in the month of May
You will surely rue the day.
Marry in haste -repent at leisure.
Monday for health -Tuesday for wealth
Wednesdays the best day of all.
Thursday for losses -Friday for crosses
Saturday is no day at all.
Ne'er cast a clout till May is out.
A wet and windy May fills the haggard with corn and hay.
Far better to go to bed supperless
Than to rise in debt.
