They had never an ill day, that had a good evening.
There is meikle hid meat in a Goose eye. Take a man by his word, and a Cow by her horn. The shots overgoes the old swine. Touch me not on the fair heel. The Malt is above the Meal. There is a dog in the well. Thy Thumb is under my Belt. The goose-pan is above the roast. The next time ye dance, wit whom ye take by the hand. U. Use your friend as ye would have him. Unskilfull mediciners, and horse-marshels slayes, both man and beast. Use makes perfectnesse. |
