Promising is not giving, but serves to content fools, [292]
Prosperity forgets father and mother, [225]
Proverbs are the daughters of daily experience, [338]
Prudent men choose frugal wives, [157]
Public money is like holy water, every one helps himself to it, [101]
Pull gently at a weak rope, [296]
Pulling the devil by the tail does not lead far young or old, [58]
Put a beggar into your barn and he will make himself your heir, [232]
Put not all your eggs into one basket, [333]
Put out the fire betimes, ere it reach the roof, [159]
