Hee that kils a man when he's drunk shall be hang'd when he's sober.
A flie hath her spleene.
A worme if it bee trod on will turne again.
A short man needs no stoole to give a great lubber a boxe on the eare.
Take this and take all.
You are at my mercy.
I can but will not hurt you
A man that will fight may find a cudgell in e∣very h••dge.
He hath spent his pouder.
Forbearance is no acquit∣tance.
I will sit on your skirts.
Kings have long eares and hands.
Foolish pity marres a city.
If I suffer this I shall have worse.
Oft goes the pitcher to the well, but at last it comes broken home:
To forget a wrong is the best revenge.
Ka me, and ka thee.

Carry a stone in your pocket to throw at a dog.
He bites and barks not.
He hath spit his venime.
Malice is mindfull.
As they brew so let them drink.
The life of the wolfe is the death of the Lamb.
God is a sure pay-master.
Slow but sure.
He may forgive, but not for∣get.
Where vice is, vengeance followes.
