“Within the hollow crown
That rounds the mortal temples of a king
Keeps Death his court, and there the antic sits,
Scoffing his state and mocking at his pomp,
Allowing him a breath, a little scene,
To monarchize, be feared, and kill with looks.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Along the Paris streets, the death-carts rumble, hollow and harsh. Six tumbrils carry the days wine to La Guillotine.”
—Charles Dickens (18121870)
