  2. 10 January 1939
    Proverbs.
    and commences by making a terrible rush he won't be able to keep working at the same pace all the time.
    John Farrelly,
    Ballinadrimna,
    Moyvalley,
    Co Kildare.
    Proverbs.
    The more haste the less speed.
    All is not gold that glitters.
    A penny wise a pound foolish.
    Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves.
    A little goes a long way.
    After a storm comes a calm.
    It is an ill wind that blows nobody good.
