Daniel's visions, dreams:

Verse 3: Four great beasts came up from the sea. The first was a lion and had eagle's wings. The second was like a bear, it had three ribs in the mouth between the teeth, etc. The third was like a leopard, and had four wings of a fowl, and had four heads. The fourth a beast dreadful and terrible, strong exceedingly--had great iron teeth--and it had ten horns. A little horn came up; in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, a mouth speaking great things. Throne whereon an ancient sat, the hair of his head like pure wool, garments snow-white, etc.; throne of fiery flame, wheels as burning fire.

Verse 19: "Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast," etc. His teeth were iron, nails of brass, etc., etc.
