A comely olde man as busie as a bee.
A merry companion is as good as a wagon.
The greatest harm that you can do unto the envious, is to do well.
Where the mind is past hope, the heart is past shame.
The rattling thunderbolt hath but his clap, the lightning but his flash, and as they both come in a moment, so do they both end in a minute.
Where the streame runneth smoothest, the water is deepest.
