- (continued from previous page)ProverbsYou cant put an old head on new shoulders.
Dont wait until to morrow what you can do the day.
Lazy mothers make (supple) suppel children.
You will never miss the water till the well runs dry.
A new broom sweeps clean.
Fine feathers makes fine birds.
It is h to be (late) early than late.
Every day (brinks) brings its own news.
I am sorry but I cannot cry.
As the old cock crows the young one learns.
The old dogs for the hard roads and the pups for the pads.
Speak of the devil and he will appear.
