    (continued from previous page)
    Lock the stable-door when the steed is stolen.
    Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
    Sunshine after rain.
    Better late than never.
    Health is better than wealth.
    He comes without asking like the bad weather.
    Prevention is better than cure.
    The war of friends doesn't last long.
