John Trapp on Luke 16:21

The dogs came and licked his sores] When Sabinus was put to death for whifpering against Seianus, his dog lay down by his dead body, brought to his mouth the bread that was cast to him: And [illegible: 1 word] Sabinus was thrown into the river Tiber, the dog [illegible: 1 word] [illegible: 1 word]. after him, to keepe him up, that he might not sinke into the bottome.
