Henry Alken (I) (mentioned on object), 1824

Op de prent zijn vijf spreekwoorden geïllustreerd: Good to begin well-better to end well. Bad luck now-better another time / Who hath a fair wife needs more than two eyes. A discreet woman should have neither eyes nor ears / In the end things will mend. He that endureth is not overcome / The further we go the further behind / Take heed you find not that you do not seek.
