Better have a Mouse in the pot as no flesh.
Better sit stil, nor rise and get a fall.
Better leave nor want.
Better buy as borrow.
Better be dead as out of the fashion.
Better unborn nor untaught.
Better be envied nor pittied.
Better a little fire that warms, nor a meikle that burns.
Be the same thing that thou wald be cald.
Better a laying Hen nor a lyin Crown.
Bannaks is better nor na kind of bread.
Black will be no other Hue.
Beauty but bounty avails nought.
Bairns mother burst never.
Breads House skiald never.
Biting and scarting is Scots folks Wooing.
Beware of Had I wist.
Better be alone nor in ill company.
Better a chigging mother, nor a riding father.
Better never begun nor never endit.
Bonie silver is soon spendit.
Before I wein, and now I wat.
C.
Curtesie is cumbersom to them that kens it not.
Come it aire, come it late, in May comes the Cow-quake.
Court to the Town, and whore to the window.
Calk is na sheares.
Clap a carle on the culs, and he will shit in your louf.
Cadgers speaks of lead saddles.
Changing of works is lighting of hearts.
