By line and levell.
Ʋse the means and trust
God for a blessing.
It smells of elbow-grease.
Help thy self, and God will help thee.
Lye not in the mire, and say God help.
What will not importunity doe?
With heart and hand.
Quick at meat, and quick at work.
Without paines no profit.
I'le make you turn over a new leaf.
Good hand good hire.
The plow goes not well if the ploughman hold it not.
Now you have a charge look to it.
Nothing's hard to a wil∣ling mind.
He's at it early and late.
Who so lacketh a stock his gaine's not worth a chip.
Nothing proves well un∣lesse it be plyed.

He that will thrive must rise at five.
He that hath thriven may lye till seven.
As busy as the hen that has but one chicke.
Fast bind, fast find.
Flowing rivers are alway sweet.
He hath crotchets in his head.
Every man for himself and God for us all.
Lay up for a rainie day.
He is alway plodding.
