To give an egg to get an ox, [16], [313]
To give change out for his coin, [55]
To give counsel to a fool is like throwing water on a goose, [348]
To give court holy-water, [16]
To give is honour, to beg is dishonour, [274]
To give is honour, to lose is grief, [217]
To give one the sack, [329]
To give quickly is to give doubly, [135]
To give tardily is to refuse, [58], [295]
To go for wool and come back shorn, [225]
