From the Unpublished History
CP Cavafy

Frequently Justinian's gaze
caused terror and revulsion among his servants.
They suspected something that they dared not say:
when by chance one night they were able to confirm
that he was indeed a demon out of Hell:
he came out of his chamber quite late, and went about
headless in the great halls of the palace.
