Calumnia.
A find-fault. A pick-thanke.
You cannot stay evill tongues.
Ill will never speake well.
Slander leaves a scarre behind.
Doe well, and let men say what they will.
Give him his due though he were the Devil.
A lie doth good how litle a while soever it be be∣leeved.
Strive not against the streame.
I can put up such wrongs.
His tongue is no slander.
He lieth for the whetstone.
Hee that speaks lavishly, shall heare as knavish∣ly.
An ill word is alway ready.
He that hath an ill name is halfe hanged.

He hath it for fetching.
A make-bate.
All are not theeves that dogs bark at.
He hath spit his venim.
