Boxes
'When the box of Pandora was
open'd on earth,
And Misery's triumph commenc'd over Mirth,
Hope was left,—was she not?—but the goblet we kiss,
And care not for Hope, who are certain of bliss.'
— Lord Byron, Fill the Goblet Again - A Song
'Precious ointments are put in small boxes.'
— Traditional, French
'An open box tempts an honest man.'
— Traditional, Dutch
'Like box-makers, more noise than work.'
— Traditional, French
