When the cat sleeps, the mice play, [297]
When the cat’s away, it is jubilee with the mice, [298]
When the cat’s away the mice (or rats) dance, [122]
When the cat’s away the mice will play, [1], [178], [261], [292], [391]
When the child cuts its teeth, death is on the watch, [244]
When the child is christened come godfathers enough, [11]
When the cook and the steward fall out we hear who stole the butter, [298]
When the cook is roasting for the butler, woe to the master’s wine-cask, [391]
When the cord is tightest it is nearest snapping, [392]
When the corsair promises masses and candles, it goes ill with the galley, [243]
