    (continued from previous page)
    A blunt knife shows a dull wife.
    A dirty grate makes dinner late.
    Too much bed makes a dull head.
    Fools make feasts and wise men eat them.
    All's well that ends well.
    A gambler and a swindler are near neighbours.
    Observation is the best teacher.
