    (continued from previous page)
    you cannot sup soup with a fork
    It is as black as a burned pot.
    There is a want in them like James Tommey's [?] trousers
    Money is made round to go round
    Better late then never
    A friend in need is a friend indeed
    Simple Faith is better than noble blood.
    He is a wise man who carries his coat with him.
