Before you mount, look to the girth, [317]
Beggars must not be choosers, [201]
Beginning and ending shake hands, [134]
Begun is half done, [135]
Behind every mountain lies a vale, [296]
Believe a boaster as you would a liar, [89]
Believe that, and drink some water (to wash it down), [14]
Belles are not for the beaux, [34]
Bells call to church but do not enter, [34]
