2. The child looks everywhere and often sees nought, the old man, sitting on the ground, sees everything.
3. The house-roof fights with the rain, but he who is sheltered ignores it.
4. The partridge loves peas, but not those that go into the pot with it.
5. Those who get on the same pirogue, have the same aspirations.
6. To love the king is not bad, but a king who loves you is better.
