Lend your money and lose your friend.
"It is not the lending of our money that loses our friend; but the demanding of it again, and that will lose a friend to my certain knowledge. They have a proverbial rhyme to this purpose:—
| "'I had a | } | penny | { | and a | } | friend | { | as many of this land, |
| I lent my | to my | when he did it demand, | ||||||
| I sought my | from my | when he had kept it long, | ||||||
| I lost my | and my | and was not that a wrong? | ||||||
| Had I a | and a | as I have had before, | ||||||
| I wo'd keep my | and my | and play the fool no more.'" | ||||||
