Employing arts of flattery to

 gruel) is bad in common. 



Like the kanji of the seven 

 A'ndiyas. 



The story is that seven A'n- 

 diyas (Mahommadan fakeers), 

 when travelling together, agreed 

 to prepare a pot of kanji in 

 common, each contributing his 

 quota of rice. The first man 

 whose turn it was to put his 

 portion of rice into the pot^ 

 thought that as there were six 

 more partners to contribute 

 rice, his own share would not 

 be missed, and so, putting his 

 hand into the pot, pretended 

 to throw in rice. And it so 

 happened that each of the other 

 six devotees thought so too, and 

 acted precisely in the same way, 

 and the result of course was an 

 empty pot, to their inexpressi- 

 ble chagrin and disappointment. 



Like Saturn falling into the 

 bag ox the beggar. 



Misfortunes never come 

 singly. 



If a man's fire-place is^ 

 strong, he will have many re- 

 lations. 



A man will not want rela- 

 tions and friends as long as he 

 can entertain them. 



Haste (is) slow. 



Like the Latin proverb fcstina 

 lente.
