'Tis altogether vain to learn wisdom, and yet live foolishly.

'Tis an easy thing to find a staff to beat a dog.

'Tis an ill dog that deserves not a crust.

'Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.

'Tis day still, while the sun shines.

'Tis either a hare or a brake-bush.

'Tis gold
  Which makes the true man killed, and saves the thief;
    Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man; what
      Can it not do, and undo?

'Tis his turn to-day, it will be mine to-morrow.

'Tis never too late to mend.

'Tis not for everyone to catch a salmon.

'Tis one beggar's woe, to see another by the door go.

'Tis sweet at certain times to drop the sage.

'Tis the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

'Tis too late to spare,
  When the bottom is bare.

A bad bush is better than an open field.

A bad day never hath a good night.

A bad excuse is better than none.

A bad mother wishes for good children.

A bad penny always turns up.

A bad worker quarrels with his tools.
