The great French Chancellor D'Aguesseau carefully employed every moment of his time.
Observing that Madame D'Aguesseau always delayed 10 or 12
minutes before she came down to dinner, he began to compose a work to which he
intended to devote these few minutes, which would otherwise have been lost.
The result was, at the end of 15 years, a work in three large quarto volumes, which went through several editions.
