Amicitia.

A frind in court is worth a penny in purse.

As a man is friended, so his cause is ended.

Old wine and old friends be praised every where.

Try your frind before you trust him.

When you goe to dance take heed whom you take by the hand.

Chuse thy company before thy drink.

Drinke and be friends.

Be not friend to tag and rag.

Change not thy old friend for a new.

In dock out nettle.

Freinds faile fliers.

Love God and love me.

Yours to command in the way of honesty.

When povertie comes in at doores, love leapes out at windowes.

Forsake not thy old freind.

Fall not out with thy friend for a trifle.

Even reckonings make long friends.

Though new broomes sweepe cleane, yet ould friends still reteine.

Better to keep under an old hedge, than creepe un∣der a new furr-bush.

Friends may meet, but mountains never.

Many kinsfolk, few freinds.

One God no more, but freinds good store.

A faithfull freind is like a Phoenix.

A freind will helpe at a dead lift.

A freind is not knowne till one have need.

He is my freind that grindeth at my milne.

Wheresoever you see your freind, trust to your selfe.

True love is the joy of life.

Love me and love my dog.

A freind is not so soone found as lost.

Ubi amici ibi opes.

Ama tanquam osurus, o∣deris tanquam ama∣turus.

Amicus alter ipse.

Nemini fidas nisi quî∣cum modium salis co∣mederis.

Delige quem diligas.

Philotesius crater.

Intempestiva benevolen∣tia nihil à simultate differt.

Neque nulli sis amicus, neque omnibus.

Amandi nec nulli nec multi.
