    (continued from previous page)
    It is time enough to bit the devil good morrow when you meet him.
    One penny gets another.
    A blind man is a bad judge of colours.
    If the cap suits you, wear it.
    An empty sack doesn't stand.
    The windy day is not the day for thatching.
    A story is not worth much without and author.
    Your voice shouldn't be heard where you cannot be seen.
    Sow the seed in the Spring and reap it in the Autumn.
    Save the hay while the sun shines.
    An apple a day keep the doctor away.
    Never leave until to morrow what you can do to day.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    Whats good for the goose is good for the gander.
