Black will be no other Hue.

Beauty but bounty avails nought.

Bairns mother burst never.

Breads House skiald never.

Biting and scarting is Scots folks Wooing.

Beware of Had I wist.

Better be alone nor in ill company.

Better a chigging mother, nor a riding father.

Better never begun nor never endit.

Bonie silver is soon spendit.

Before I wein, and now I wat.

Curtesie is cumbersom to them that kens it not.

Come it aire, come it late, in May comes the Cow-quake.
