And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

und begehrte sich zu sättigen von den Brosamen, die von des Reichen Tische fielen; doch kamen die Hunde und leckten ihm seine Schwären.
Y deseando hartarse de las migajas que caían de la mesa del rico; y aun los perros venían y le lamían las llagas.
et désireux de se rassasier des miettes qui tombaient de la table du riche; et même les chiens venaient encore lécher ses ulcères.
E desiderava saziarsi delle miche che cadevano dalla tavola del ricco; anzi ancora i cani venivano, e leccavano le sue ulceri.
E desejava alimentar-se com as migalhas que caíam da mesa do rico; e os próprios cães vinham lamber-lhe as chagas.
想得財主桌子上掉下來的碎食充飢,甚至還有狗來舔他的瘡。
