A teneris consuescere multum est.

—Argillâ quidvis imi∣taberis udâ.

Naturae sequitur semina quisque suae.

Neglectis urenda filix innascitur agris.

E squilla non nascitur rosa.

Pardus maculas non de∣ponit.

Malum ferrum malus gladius.

Quo semel est imbuta recens servabit odo∣rem testa diu.

Non est in medico sem∣per relevetur ut aeger.

Aethiops non candescit.

Consuetudo est altera natura.

Lupus pilum mutat, non ingenium.

Ex quovis ligno non fit Mercurius.
