   (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)

   You can't carry water in a [riddle?].
   As long as a hound's tooth (a stitch).
   A drowning man catches at a straw.
   No gains without pains (care).
   A good word never choked anyone.

2. Proverbs

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Every day washing, ne'er a day clean.
   Every fool laughs at his own folly.
   (Used in a ring game - "or tig" - whoever got 'jolly' had the tig).

   ' Your head up, like a thieving cow."
   Spadach won't last.
   The more haste, the less speed.
   As deaf as a beetle.
   As contrary as a weasel.
   It's a bad bird, that fouls its own nest.
