The sepulcher dwelling hound is a hound of contrasts. The sepulcher dwelling hound is both happy in certain respects and not in others. The sepulcher to a human is an obvious grim image, more so than a grave yard or most other burial places. This grim quality is due to the fact that a sepulcher not only houses bones (often uncovered within), but also has a certain gothic connotation. To the hound the gothic air of a sepulcher is inconsequential, for a hound cares little about an architectures emotional broadcast. The hound is thusly not affected by the sepulcher in the human way, but sees it in a much different light. Let us not forget that much of the human disgust with the sepulcher is due to the bones. A human and hound see bones rather differently, the human sees them as a threat, the hound sees them as a feast. This often overlooked difference is essential in seeing the sepulcher from the perspective of the hound. While the sepulcher is generally a postive substance for the hound, there is one aspect of the situation that begets contrast. The hound may or may not be able to escape. In the general interpretation of the sepulcher dwelling hound the hound is unable to escape. The hound in question if assumed to be a gluttonous, dimwitted beast, is hardly affected by the imposed solitude of the grave. The aformentioned hound would see the sepulcher in a postive light, as a continuous feast reserved only for itself; such a hound is not a hound of contrasts. The more personified hound (which shall be used for our purposes) would see the solitude of the sepulcher in a negative light. This hound, the hound of contrasts, would enjoy the feasting on its surface, but would be unable to dispel the sad undertones of its grave-locked existence. The sepulcher dwelling hound is a hound of contrasts, a hound of elation and a hound of sadness.
