Problem. Help, damn it.

[wolven7]

LUXT - [Cleanser]--- I have the dying words of Ota Dokan (compsed as he sat dying in the bath with the weapon still in his body, after he was stabbed) stuck in my head, and i'd forgotten them until i read them, again, last night. Now i can't remember where I first read them. Can anyone out there help? If you know of the book, movie, comic or play in which this poem appeared, please let me know:

Had I not known
that I was dead
already
I would have mourned
my loss of life.

- Ota Dokan (1432-86)

The Dresden Dolls - [The Perfect Fit]--- Thank you.

Yeah, i know it's well known, the problem being that i can't remember where i First read/heard it. I like to give credit to sources.

And that's completely understandable. That series sucked, pretty bad.
