1 As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest,so honor is not seemly for a fool.
2 As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying,so the curse causeless shall not come.
3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass,and a rod for the fool's back.
4 Answer not a fool according to his folly,lest thou also be like unto him.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,lest he be wise in his own conceit.
6 He that sendeth a message by the hand of a foolcutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
