Foreboding: Quotations from Shakespearian Quotations

Yet, again, methinks, Some unborn sorrow, ripe in fortune's womb,— R. II. ii. 2
Is coming toward me.— M. ii. 1
A heavy summons lies like lead upon me. I have an ill-divining soul : Methinks I see thee now thou art below, As one dead in the bottom of a tomb: Either my eye-sight fails, or thou look'st pale. R. J iii. 5 The skies look grimly, And threaten present blusters. In my conscience, The heavens with that we have in hand are angry,— W. T. iii. d.
And frown upon us. For my mind misgives, Some consequence, yet hanging in the stars, Shall bitterly begin his fearful date
With this night's revels; and expire the term Of a despised life, clos'd in my breast, By some vile forfeit of untimely death.— R. J. i. 4.
In what particular thought to work, I know not; But, in the gross and scope of mine opinion, This bodes some strange eruption to our state.— H. i. 1
