Zustand: Sehr gut. XXI , 70 p. Very good condition, basically as new. - ln seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy. -- Drive your cart and your plow over the bones of the dead. -- The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom. -- Prudence is a rieh, ugly old maid courted by Incapacity. -- He who desires but acts not, breeds pestilence. -- The cut worm forgives the plow. -- Dip him in the river who loves water. -- A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees. -- He whose face gives no light, shall never become a Star. -- Eternity is in love with the productions of time. -- The busy bee has no time for sorrow. -- The hours of folly are measur'd by the clock; but of wisdom, no clock can measure. -- All wholsom food is caught without a net or a trap. -- Bring out number weight & measure in a year of dearth. -- No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings. -- A dead body revenges not injuries. -- The most sublime act is to set another before you; -- If the fool would persist in his folly he would become wise. -- Folly is the cloak of knavery. -- Shame is Prides cloke. -- Prisons are built with stones of Law, Brothels with bricks of Religion. -- The pride of the peacock is the glory of God. -- The lust of the goat is the bounty of God. -- The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God. -- The nakedness of woman is the work of God. -- Excess of sorrow laughs. Excess ofjoy weeps. -- The roaring of lions, the howling of wolves, the raging -- of the stormy sea, and the destructive sword, are portions of eternity, too great for the eye of man. -- The fox condemns the trap, not himself. -- Joys impregnate. Sorrows bring forth. -- Let man wear the feil of the hon, woman the fleece of the sheep. -- The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship. -- The selfish, smihng fool, & the sullen frowning fool, shall be both thought wise, that they may be a rod. -- What is now proved was once only imagin'd. -- The rat, the mouse, the fox, the rabbet: watch the roots; the lion, the tyger, the horse, the elephant watch the fruits The cistern contains; the fountain overflows.
