    proverbs
    She pays him in his own coin
    The sight of you is good for sore eyes
    There are none so blind as they that wont see
    She watches him as a cat would watch a mouse
    Immodest words admit of no defence for want of decency is want of sense
    After a storm comes a calm
    Liars ought to have good memories
    Set a beggar on horseback and he'll out ride the devil
    Be wise today tis madness to defer
