A woman like a goose, a sharp pecking woman
A woman like a pig, a sleepy-headed woman
A woman like a sickle, a strong stubborn woman
A woman like a goat, a woman of rushing visits
A woman like a sheep, an affable friendly woman
A woman like a lamb, a quiet friendly woman
It is not the most beautiful woman who has the most sense
A woman can beat the devil
A shrew gets her wish but suffers in the getting
Many a time the man with ten (cows has overtaken the man with forty(cows)
Do it as if there was fire in your skin
The seeking for one thing will find another
make your hay before the fine weather leaves you
Sow early and mow early
The early riser gets through his business but not through early rising
The slow horse reaches the mill
Making the beginning is one third of the work
The quiet pigs eat all the draff
The sweat of one's brow is what burns everyone
Everyone lays a burden on the willing horse
Every little makes a mickle
Speed and accuracy do not agree
Never Put off tomorrow what you can do today
I'll go there tonight for evening is speedier than morning
The person of the greatest talk is the person of the least work
Be there with the day and be gone with the day
About evening a man is known
Long churning makes bad butter
Scattering is easier than gathering
The labour of the crow
Put it on your shoulder and say it is not a burden
It's no delay to stop to edge the tool
The mason who strikes often is better than the one who strikes too hard
It destroys the craft not to learn it
The dog that's always on the go, is better than the one that's always curled up
