Mony hands make light work. Mony masters, quoth the paddock to the harrow. Mony hounds may soon worry ae hare. Mony excuses pishes the bed.
00 Mony ane works to a thankless master.
Mony wite their wife for their ain thrifeless life.. Mony dogs die or ye fa heir. Mony ane's gear has hastened their hinderend. Mony aunts mony eems, mony kin and few friends.
05 Mony good nights is faith away.
Mony ways to kill a dog tho' ye dinna hang him. Mony cocks never made good broth. Mony ane spier the gait they ken fu' well. Must is a king's word.
10 My tongue is no beneath your belt.
My son's my son till he get a wife my daugh-
ter's my daughter all the days of her life.
My market's made, ye may lick a whip shaft.

Nae fool to an auld fool.
Nae friend like a friend in need.
15 Nae great togs but there's some sma' advantage.
Nae man has a tack of his life. Nae man can thrive unless his wife let him. Nae pence nee pater noster. Nae sooner up than her head's in the ambry.
120 Nae wonder to see wasters want.
Naething freer than a giſt. Naething to do but draw in your stool aod sit down. Nane but fools and knaves lay wagers.
25 Nane sae well but he hopes to be better.
Nane can play the fool sae well as a wise man, Narrow gathered widely spent. Neck or naething, the king lo'es na cripples.
80 Necessity has nae law.
Neither fish nor flesh nor good red herringe New lords have new laws. Never jaw water on a drowned mouse.
