   A gallant curtleax upon my thigh,
   A boar-spear in my hand. William Shakespeare, As you like it.

   To the lodgments of his herd he run,
   Where the fat porkets slept beneath the sun;
   Of two his cutlash launch’d the spouting blood,
   These quarter’d, sing’d, and fix’d on forks of wood. Alexander Pope.
