    • 1615, Cervantes, Don Quixote 2.53:
      «Pensar que en esta vida las cosas della han de durar siempre en un estado es pensar en lo escusado; antes parece que ella anda todo en redondo, digo, a la redonda: la primavera sigue al verano, el verano al estío, el estío al otoño, y el otoño al invierno, y el invierno a la primavera, y assí torna a andarse el tiempo con esta rueda continua
      To think that, in this life, things are to last forever is to think in nothing worthy; rather, it seems that life goes round, I mean, in a circle: the beginning of spring is followed by spring proper, spring by summer, summer by winter, winter by the beginning of spring. Thus time turns around in this continuous wheel.
