A proverb a day to brighten the day!


556a. 

Ein armer Mann ist allen ausgeliefert. 

Die Frau eines Armen ist eine freie Dienerin für alle.


556b.  

A poor man is at the mercy of all. 

A poorman' wife is a free servant to all.


A poor man and his wife are NOT expected to have 

or even allowed to have any personal dignity.


He is always at the mercy of everyone  

and she is a free servant for everyone.


Money can buy many things - including 

respect and a warm welcome everywhere.
