“Lick Up the Dust of Thy Feet”

George Reynolds, Janne M. Sjodahl

The story is told of a prince who threw himself on the ground and kissed the prints that the horse of the victorious enemy had made with his hoofs in the dust, while he recited:

"While I shall have the happiness to kiss the dust of your feet, I shall think that fortune favors me with its tenderest caresses, and its sweetest kisses."
