    Speak not of my debts unless you mean to pay them.
    17th century English proverb, collected in George Herbert, Outlandish Proverbs (1640)

    I call on those that call me son,
    Grandson, or great-grandson,
    On uncles, aunts, great-uncles or great-aunts

    Have I, that put it into words,
    Spoilt what old loins have sent?
