SENSE AND SENTIMENT

Walls have ears. ( ~ Wedlock’s a padlock. *- Good clothes open all doors. £> Idleness is the key of beggary. V Good is God, and long Is eternity. Great trees keep down the little ones. Fortune helps them that help themselves. Idleness must thank itself if it ge barefoot. God healeth, and the physician hath the thanks. Nothing comes out of the sack but what was in it. For whom does the blind man’s wife paint herself? ’Tis In vain to kick after you have once put on fetters. We never know the worth of water till the well is dry. Fools and madmen ought not to be left In their own company. Fools may ask more in an hour thaw wise men can answer In seven years. Patch by patch is good housewifery, but patch upon patch Is plain beggary.
