Excerpt from A Hand-Book of Proverbs: Comprising Ray's Collection of English Proverbs, With His Additions From Foreign Languages, and a Complete Alphabetical Index
If any one shall find fault, that I have inserted many En lish phrases that are not pro erly Proverbs, though that wor be taken in its greatest latitu e, and according to my own definition of a Proverb, and object that I mi ht as well have admitted all the idioms of the English tongue answer, that, to sa the truth, I cannot warrant all those phrases to be genuine Eroverbs to which I have allowed room In this collection; for, indeed, I do not satisfy myself in many: but because they were sent me for such by learned and intelligent persons, and who, I ought to pre sume, understand the nature of a Proverb better than myself, and because I find the like in collections of Foreign Proverbs, both French and Italian, I chose rather to submit them to the censure of the reader, than myself pass sentence of rejection on them.
