Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.

The English proverb Shah set beside it

A lean dog gets nothing but fleas.Misfortunes never come singly, but with their battalions.

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
