Quotations for tow

She hath other tow on her distaff. [ Proverb ]

Yet, no - not words, for they
But half can tell love's feeling;
Sweet flowers alone can say
What passion fears revealing:
A once bright rose's wither'd leaf,
A tow'ring lily broken -
Oh, these may paint a grief
No words could ever have spoken. [ Moore ]

When the husband is fire, and the wife tow, the devil easily sets all in a flame. [ Proverb ]
