"Perchance the very dogs which I have fed Here in my palaces and at my board, The guardians of my doors, when, by the spear Or sword, some enemy shall take my life, And at my threshold leave me stretched a corpse, Will rend me, and, with savage greediness, Will lap my blood, and in the porch lie down."
