W.
War makes Thieves, and Peace hangs them. Weight and Measure take away Strife. Willows are weak, yet they bind other Wood. Welcome Death quoth the Rat, when the Trap fell down. Wolves loose their Teeth, but not their Memory. Words are but Sands, it's Money buys Lands.

Youth and white Paper take any Impression. You cannot make Velvet of a Sow's Ear. Young serving-Man, an old Beggar. Young Men may Die, but old Men must Die. Young Lambs-skin goes as soon to the Market as the old Ewe. Youth, if it knew, what Age would Crave, It would in time both get and save.
