- (continued from previous page)Mist for fine weather or river mist for storm on hills.
Divine retribution though slow is direct and heavy.

No flood but ebbs save the flood of grace.
It is hard to take hope for certainty.
Prosperity only exists where there is control.
Where Gods word fails to teach mans cannot.
An apple a day keep the doctor away.

The world could not make a racehorse out of an ass.
Many hands make light work.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.(continues on next page)
