There is a history in all men's lives Figuring the nature of the times deceas'd: The which observ'd, a man may prophecy, With a near aim, of the main chance of things As yet to come to life; which in their seeds, And weak beginnings, lie intreasured. H. IV. PT. II. iii.— PT. II. iii. 1.
Squandering glances.— A. Y. ii. 7.
