Complete Collection Of English Proverbs eBook

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Some proverbs the reader may possibly lind repeated, but I dare say not many, I know this might have been avoided by running over the whole book, and searching for the proverbs, one by one, in all the places where our method would admit than entry. But sloth and impatience of so tedious a work enticed me rather to presume upon memory; especially considering it was not worth while to be very solicitous about a matter of so small importance. In such papers as I received after the copy was out of my hands, when I was doubtful of any proverb I chose to let it stand, resolving that it was better to repeat some than to omit any.
