There lay, Bloodying all the ice about him, the fellow whom I had run through the throat, as dead as the rat he was, but still jerking blood from beneath his ear; and there in my arms, as I kneeled on the stones, lay Dolly, her head fallen back and out of her hood, as white as a lily, dead too in an instant, for she was stabbed through her heart, with her life-blood in a great smear down her side, and all over my hands and clothes.
"Oddsfish!"
Robert Hugh Benson
He comes, pale vampire, through storm his eyes, his bat sails Bloodying the sea, mouth to her mouth's kiss.
"Ulysses"
James Joyce
There where the name thereof becometh void Did I arrive, pierced through and through the throat, Fleeing on foot, and Bloodying the plain; There my sight lost I, and my utterance Ceased in the name of Mary, and thereat I fell, and tenantless my flesh remained.
"Divine-Comedy-Longfellow-s-Translation-Complete"
Dante Alighieri
