    (continued from previous page)
    saves nine.
    A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
    Many hands make light work.
    An apple a day keeps the Doctor away.
    Help and worn brothers pulling hard against the stream.
    Look before you leap.
    Make hay whilst the sun shines.
    More hurry the less speed.
    Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
