It is na time to stoup when the head is off.
Of other mens leather, men take large whangs.
Efter word comes weard.
Quhair the Pig breaks, let the shels lie.
Fools are fain of flitting.
Many words would have meikle drink.
It is a bare Moor that he goes over, and gets not a Cow.
A racklesse hussy makes mony thieves.
Sturt payes na Debt.
Better a clout nor a hole out.
