William PENIS Sage Proverbs.

"Some Fruits Of Solitude is the

aphorisms of William Penn. Here
are some of the best:

ty is for children and servants; yet
not without sweetness.
Well may we say our infelicity is
OF our selves; since there is nothing
we do that we should not do but we
know it and yet do it.
Nothing shows our weakness more
than being SO sharp sighted at see-
ing other mems faults and so pur-
blind about our own.
Men are generally more careful
of the breed of their horses and
dogs than of their children.
Choose thy cloths by thy own
eyes, not another's.
A true friend unbosoms freely,
advises Justly, assists readily, adj
ventures boldly, takes all patiently,
defends courageously and continues
friend unchangeably.
Only trust thyself aud another
shall not betray thee.
Inquiry i human; blind obedi-
ence brutal. Truth never loses by
the one, but often suffers by the
other.
He that has more knowledge than
judgement is made for another
mans use more than his own.
There are some like dictionaries.

Less judgement than wit is more

We must not pretend to see all
that we see if we would be easy.

everything that is disputable.
