TAC TAN

Tanquam Suber.

Ing. Like a cat he has nine lives
Ing. Throw him as you will he will be sure to alight upon his feet
Ing. Give a man luck and throw him into the sea
He is like a cork, nothing will depress or sink him, was used to be said of persons who had passed through great trials, or escaped from imminent danger without mischief. Of such men we say, like a cat he has nine lives, or throw him as you will he will be sure to alight upon his feet, give a man luck and throw him into the sea.
