I did check the index and couldn't find this . Aplogies if it was mentioned previously . Applicable in more ways than one .

The ravager of the night ,
the burner who has sought out barrows from old ,
then found his hoard of undefended joy .
The smooth evil dragon swims through the gloom
enfolded in flame ; the folk of this country
hold him in dread .He is doomed to seek out hoards in the ground , and guard for an age there
the heathen gold : much good it does him !

Beowulf .trans .Michael Alexander 1987 .)
