  1. (continued from previous page)
    After dinner rest a while
    After supper walk a mile

    Never count your chickens before they are hatched

    When the old cock crows, the young cock learns

    Penny wise and pound foolish

    The old dog for the hard road

    Better to die than to lie

    If yow have only a goat be in the middle of the fair

    When all fruit fails welcome haws
