Catalunian Proverbs.

APpetite is better then surfet.

In Iuly neither woman nor snail.

A man dyes of the ill he fears.

He that hath a handsome body needs no cloke.

Who riseth late, trots all the day, because he is behind hand with business.

The voice of the people is the voice of God.

Dry bread is better with love, then a fat capon with fear.
