PROVERBS. 65

XCVIILI.

THREE straws on a staff,
Would make a baby cry and laugh,

 

XCIX.

SEE a pin and pick it up,

All the day you’ll have good luck;
See a pin and let it lay,

Bad luck you'll have all the day.

Go to bed first, a golden purse;
Go to bed second, a golden pheasant;
Go to bed third, a golden bird!
