Jacula Prudentum: Outlandish Proverbs, Sentences, Etc.

Jacula Prudentum, or Darts of the Wise, is a collection of almost 1200 proverbs compiled by George Herbert in the seventeenth century. This collection includes many well-known sayings such as: Whose house is of glass must not throw stones at another,
All is not gold that glitters,
Help thyself, and God will help thee, and You may bring a horse to the river, but he will drink when and what he pleaseth.
The collection is curious and interesting. Proverbs formed a favorite study of that age. -Rev. Robert Willmott.
