Excerpt from Marathi Proverbs: Collected and Translated As far as I am aware no English translation of Marathi Proverbs has been published hitherto; nor is there any very complete list to be found in the vernacular. The only excuse which can be offered for the issue of this work is the importance of preserving as far as possible all proverbial expressions, which depict the thought and character of the people, before they pass out of use altogether; for although they are well known to the elders of the present generation, they will probably be less known, less loved, and less used by the coming race, with its Anglicised education and its modern literature. This collection does not pretend to contain all the Marathi sayings to be heard in Western India, but it is believed to include a majority of those which are worth preserving. Many which did not seem to deserve the title of proverb have been omitted those of a coarse nature, the transla tion of which would offend the taste of English readers, have been excluded, for no good purpose would be served by making them more generally known or by helping to prolong their existence; but those which are given have been gleaned from any source which offered.
