He knowes no end of his wealth.

He hath so much need of it, as I have of the cough.

Ill gotten goods never prove well.

Riches and sin are oft mar∣ryed together.

Happy is the child whose father goes to th' Devil.

I wot well how the world wags.

Hee's best loved that hath most bags.

Men worship the rising sun.

Many a dog is hang'd for his skin, and many a man is kill'd for his purse.

A rich mans money hangs him oftentimes.

Much coyn much care.

Much meat much maladie.

Mony is a great traveller, in the world.

No cattell no care.

Beggers breed and rich men feed.

Poore men go to heaven as∣soon as rich.

Mony is a great master in a market.

He's rich that wants no∣thing.

He that hath flsh good store may put the more i'th pot.
