A study of native proverbs. This book completes Westermarck's
trilogy on the customs and ideas of the Moors, which is based on
nine years' experience among them in the course of more than three
decades. A large number of the proverbs found in this volume are
sentences conveying a statement of a more or less general character
which is either literally or metaphorically applicable to
individual cases; but the statement of some particular event, real
or imaginary, may also be a proverb, though only on condition that
it may be figuratively applied to other events reminiscent of it.
Proverbs have become proverbs only by being used in definite
concrete situations.
