I hope these notes will help you tackle this group of proverbs in Latin Via Proverbs. This group also features proverbs using first declension nouns and first conjugation verbs.
Please note: to read the proverbs in Latin, you need to acquire a copy of the book from lulu.com! What I am providing here in the blog are notes to help people who are making their way through the book either in a Latin class or on their own.
