Un Chameau tombé sous sa charge
Nil ultra vires
Il ne faut rien entreprendre au dessus de ses forces
Non si incominciare niente che non si puol finire
Nada hemos de empeçar que no podemos acabat
Men moet niets boven vermoogen ondernemen
Men must not begin any thing that men can not finish
Man must keine sach unternemen über vermôgen
