_The Cart before the Horse_ (Vol. i., p. 348.).--F. C. B. says, "I know
not how old may be, 'to put the cart before the horse.'" _Lucian_ quotes
the proverb [Greek: hê hamaxa ton boun] [scil. [Greek: helkei]] to
illustrate the case of the young dying before the old; it is an exact
equivalent to the English proverb. (_Lucian. Dial. Mortuor._ vi. 2.)
