Dead flies spoil the perfumer's oil.
Skill brings success.

By slothfulness the roof sinks in.
A bird of the sky may carry your voice.

A Little Folly

Write the number 1 to 4 in each circle to show the right order.

If the ax is blunt, and one doesn’t sharpen the edge, then he must use more strength; but skill brings success

The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious

If the spirit of the ruler rises up against you, don’t leave your place; for gentleness lays great offenses to rest

By slothfulness the roof sinks in

Draw a sharp ax and a tree.
