 5 A greedy ee never gat a good pennyworth. A hantle cry murder and are ay uppermoft. A houndlefs hunter and a gunless gunner, fee ay routh o’ game. A hungry man ’s ay angry, Ale-fellers fhould na be tale-tellers, A liar fhould hae a good memory. A light purfe maks a heavy heart, A’s no gowd that glitters, A7 the truth fhould na be tauld. A’ that's faid in the kitchen fhould na be tald in the ha’. A’cats are grey in the dark. A’s no tint that s in hazard. A’s fifh that comes in the net. A’ Stewarts are no to the king A’s weel that ends weel. A’ things are gude A man’s ay croufe on his ain caufe. A man may fpit in his loof and do little. A man canna bear a’ his km on his back. A man at five may be a fool at fifteen A man is weel or wae as he thinks himfel fae, A mouthfu’ o' meat may be a townfu' o' fhame. A muffled eat was ne’er a good hunter. An auld mafon maks a good barrowman.
