All things hath a beginning, God excepted. A blind man should not judge of colours. A good fellow tint never, but at an ill fellows hand. All the Corn in the Country is not shorn by the Kempers. A good beginning makes a good ending. As many heads as many wits. A black shoe makes a blythe heart. A Vaunter and a Lyar is both one thing. A dum man wan never land. And old hound bytes fair. A sloathfull man is a Beggers brother. As soon comes the Lamb-skin to the market as the old Sheeps. At open doors Dogs come in. An hungry man sees far. All is not tint that is in peril. |
