“Bodies of holy men and women exude
Miraculous oil, odour of violet.
But under heavy loads of trampled clay
Lie bodies of the vampires full of blood;
Their shrouds are bloody and their lips are wet.”

With loads of learned lumber in his head.
With his own tongue still edifies his ears,
And always listening to himself appears.”
