Do as the laffes do, fay no, and tak it. Dows and dominees leave ay a foul houfe. Double charges rive canons. Draff's gude enough for fwine. Dummie winna fie.

E

Early mafter foon knave. Eat your fill but pouch nane. Eild and poortith’s fair to thole: Either win the horfe or tine the faddle. E'eaing red and morning grey, is a taiken of a bonny day. E’ening oats are gude morning fother. Eneugh’s as goods a feaft. Every ane crifnes the fat fow’s tail. Every craw thinks his ain bird whiteft, Every dog has his day. Every thing has an end and a pudding has twa

F

Fair exchange is nae robbery. Fancy kills and fancy cures. Far away fowls hue ay fair feathers. Fat paunches bod lean pows. Fiddlers dogs and flefh-flies come to feafts unca’d.
