Gula.
Fat paunches make leane pates and grosser bits enrich the ribs, but bankerupt quite the wits.
His brains are in's belly —
His belly is too strong for's purse.

When the belly is full the bones would be at rest.
He that any good would win, at his mouth must first begin.
Apples, eggs and nuts, you may eate though drest by sluts.
His teeth outgoe his hands.
He'l not part with's pro∣vender.
No sooner up, but head i'th ambrey and nose i'th cup.
Old dog at a barly bag-pudding.
Dinners cannot be long where dainties want.
After cheese comes no∣thing.
He cares not how good his drinke be so his bread be good.
Pinguis venter non gig∣nit sensum tennem.

Impletus venter non vult studere libenter.
Poma ova & nuces, si det tibi sordida gustes.
Asinus inter paleas.
Asini mandibula.
Cereri sacrificat.
