Op de prent zijn vijf spreekwoorden geïllustreerd: He who would have a hare for breakfast must hunt overnight / A tree is known by the fruit not by the leaves. Every man is best known to himself / It's an ill air where nothing is to be gain'd. It is an ill wind that blows no one good / A bean in liberty is better than a comfit in prison. Life is half spent before we know what it is. Poverty is the mother of health / Who would be a Gentleman let him storm a town. It is not the gay coat makes the Gentleman.
