  1. (continued from previous page)
    What the old cock crows the young cock learns.
    This bad wind that dont blow good for someone.
    A long time coming comes at last.
    A good run is better than a bad stand.
    Time flies and death approaches.
    Never put off till to-morrow what you can do to day.
    Spare the rod and spoil the child.
    Many hands makes light work.
    When all fruit fails welcome haws.
