Dadle el afuo : Put on the afs. We fay. Drive on, car-man ; which is to fay, a man would rather be hang'd than marry an ugly woman. For in Spain criminals are carried to execution upon an afs, inftead of tlie cart ufed in England. Prov. El afno y la miige'r a pala fe han de vencer : An ais and a woman are to be conquer'd with a cudgel. The occafion of this proverb, they iáy, was a carrier, who coming to a nar- row paftage, could not get his afs to go on, and fell a beating of him un- mercifully, till a traveller coming by, and reproving him for fo doing, he bid him hold his peace, for an afs and a woman were to be overcome with a cudgel.

The reaibn, becaufe if a carrier fells his afs, -which he has fo much ufe for himfelf, he muft either be very bad, or old, or ibid dear ; and for the inn-keeper's daughter, Ihe is expofed to ib much company, and lb many temptations, that it is haid for her to comeofFuntainted. -Prov. ^ie'n al afno alaba, tal hijo le náfaa : He that praifes the afs, may he have fuch a ion born to him. That is, may he that is over-ibnd of mean things never know better, but may all he has be mean. ■' Prov. Afno coxo mas avias de ma- drugar : Lame aC, you ought to get up earlier. This is apply'd to thoíé who are dull, flow, or unhandy, and therefore cannot compafs their bufineis- in time : It advifes them to rife earlyj that they may have leifure to perform their affairs, fince nature has obftruitcd their doing them as quick as others.

If you make yow fclf familiar, or jcft with mean people, you muft cx- pcd no better than a llap in the face ■with thiir tail ; that is, fomc brutifli ivords or afiions. Prov. CayJo la el kfno en el alcacel : The afs is fallen among the green bar- ley. This is to txprcfs a mifchance attended wi;h fomegood circumllance, ■which alleviates, or quite blots it out ; as is fignify'd by the afs falling among f;reen bsrky, where tho'he had the ill uck to fall, yet he may fill his belly to enable him to go on. Prov. Define no pi't'o nl /ifno, torn.i- fe al aHarda : Smce he could not be rcvcng'd upon the tif, he falls upon the packfaddle. This fi ows the humour of many men, who «hen oftended, and ¿are not iliow their refentment on t.hem that caus'd it, vent their paiTion on their wives, children, fervauts, or others they have power over. Prov. fíühló el áfno. y dixo, lo, ho : The afs (poke, and faid, ho, ho. ror thofc who after a long filcncc, as if they had been ñudying fentcnces, break ■\vich fomething which is not at all to the purpofe. Prov. Mas vale áfno que me Uéve, que cavkUo que ne derrueque : I had ra- ther have an aC that will cari'y me, than a horfe that will throw me.

Mas ijah con mal ájno conten- der, que la leña acuejlas traer: It is better to ftrive with an ill afs, than to carry the wood upon one's back. A bad fervant is better than to do one's pwn work. Prov. M ¡tfr.o muerto la ceváda al TÁbo: Whta the afs is dead, the bar^ A S N ley at his tail. A reproof to them that are liow in doing good, c\en when it is too late, or even then mifplace it ; as it is after a poor beaft is itarv'd to lay tlie provender to its tail. Pro\-. Al afiio y al mulo, la carga al cuto : The afs and the mule muft have the burthen upon the rump. That is, they muft have it laid on behind ; but in another fenfe, that brutiih men muft be cudgcU'd, as mules and alies are, behind ; for that is alfo a load, ac- cording to the Spaniih phrafe, V ti.i carga de palos ; that is, a good beat- ing. Prov. sufre el afno la carga, mas 710 la fohrecarga : The afs bears the bur- then, but not an over-burthen. That is, w e n-,u.1 not lay too much upon a man, the' he be never fo patient ; for is you over-burthen him, like the afs, he'll throw all down. Prov. Vn afno entre muchas monas cocanle todas : When one afs is among many monkeys, they all make faces at him. When a cully falls into the hands of many (harpers, they all fleece him. Or when many women make a fool of a man. Prov. A un afno báfiale una albárda .• One paunel is enough for one afs. One employment is enough for one man. Prov.

Prov. h'ffo le efia cómo al áfno los corales: That becomes him as a coral docs an afs. We fay, fuch a one looks like a fow faddled. Prov. JNb vk ftéte folre un afno : He fees not fevcn as he fits upon an afi. A man had feven affes, drove fix of them, and rode upon the other ; as he was going, he feveral times counted them, and ftill fouiid but fix, forget- ting that he had one* under him, till enquiring of thofe he met for the fe- vcnth, one fliow'd him that he was upon, and then he found out his mif- take. Thence when a man does not fee or conceive tlie moft obvious things, they fay, he cannot fee feven when he fits upon an aC. It is not unlike, he cannot fee wood for trees. Prov. si lino, dos, y tres te di'zen que eres áfno, ponte un rabo:- If one, tivo, and three tell you you are an afs, put on a tajl. That is, whatever is gene- rally faid of you, you muft of necefiity acquiefce, for either it is true, or it will be impolTiblc for you to undeceive the world. Prov. A'fno cargado de oro fúbe ligero ASP por una montaña : An ais loaded with gold chmbs a mountain nimbly. This, tho' not verified in the literal fenfe, is to cxprefs how readily men undertake any thing, and with what alacrity they perform it for the lucre of gold. Prov. Caer de fu áfno : To fall from his ais. When a man is obftinate, and will take no advice, and diicovers his errors too late, they fay, he falls from his afs ; that is, he was before like an afs mounted on his own folly, and is then fallen down, being made fenfible of his ignorance. Prov. O morirá el áfno, o quién le aguija: Either the afs will die, or his driver. When the death of one, of two, or more, will deliver a man out of trouble. Taken from a man that undertook for a maintenance and good reward to make his afs fpeak in a cer- tain term of years; and a friend asking him how he came to undertake fuch an impofiibility, upon forfeiture of life if he fail'd ; he anfwer'd, either the lord will die, meaning him that kept them, or the als, or the driver, before that time.

That is very plain advice to be cautious in the affair of matrimony, becaufe it is indillbluble. It may be apply'd in other cafes, as we fay, look before you leap. Prov. Cafar, cafar, y quién ha de goveniar : Marry, marry, and who mull rule the houfe. A reproof to young people that would marry before they have fenfe to govern a family. It is faid upon any occafion, when people would undertake what they are not capable of. Prov. Cafar, y compadrar, cada quaí con fu ygual : Let every one marry and make a golfip of his equal. A ge- neral advice co endeavour in all things to have to do with our equals, eipe- cially in matrimony, becaufe inequa- lity of birth or fortune is often the caufe of difcord. Prov.

Prov. Cafar ruynes, y vacerán mon- taraces : Marry a bafe coi'ple you'll have a wild breed. It is a general opinion that the children take «iter the parents, and ibmetimes it may be, but Jaily experience fliows the contrary. In beafls indeed the main thing is the breed, but in man I think education is the principal. Prov.

Prov. guien Uxos fe va a cafar, o va eagañadoy o va a engañar: He that goes a great way to marry is either cheated or goes to cheat. We find this too often vcrify'd, for things at a great diflance are feldom truly repre- fented. Prov. ^ien tarde cafa, mal cafa : He that marries late, marries ill. Be- caufe they ought to marry young to have children, and to be us'd to one another's temper, for old people when they firit come together cannot bear with one another's failings ; and the icripture fays, Bonum eji viro turn por- .taverit jugum ab adokfcentiafua. Prov. §uién mal cafa, tarde emhiú- da : It is long before he becomes a widower, who marries ill. That is, when people are ill marry'd they al- ways think it long before the widow- hood comes. Prov. Si quieres bien cafar, cafa con tu yguál : If you would be well marry'd, marry your equal. This we have above under the words, cafar y compadrar, cada qual con fu yguál. Prov. Cafar, cafar fuéna bii.n, y fabe mal : Marry, marry, founds well, and reliíhes but ill. That is, people talk of marrying with a great deal of pleafure, but afterwards meet with cares and troubles that give it an ill reliih. Prov. La que con muchos fe cafa , a todos enfada : She. that is marry'd to many tires them all. In the literal fenfe, a woman that marries many husbands, is fuppos'd to weary them out of their lives with her ill temper. But otherwife by cafar con muchos, to marry many, is only meant an imper- tinent woman, that has an oar in eve- ry m^i.'ji's boat, and has bulinefs with every Body, which vexes and tries all the world.
