Chapter 12

"She speaks much of her father; says she hears,

There's tricks i' the world; and hems, and beats her breast;

Spurns enviously at straws; speaks things in doubt,

That carry but half sense; her speech is nothing,

Yet the unshaped use of it doth move

The hearers to collection;"

Hamlet, IV.v.4–9.
