For now hath time made me his numbering clock:
My thoughts are minutes; and with sighs they jar

Is pointing still, in cleansing them from tears.

Are clamorous groans, which strike upon my heart,
Which is the bell: so sighs and tears and groans
Show minutes, times, and hours.”
― William Shakespeare, Richard II
