X.

The Prince de Ligne was wounded in the knee;

Count Chapeau-Bras,[IA]—too, had a ball between

His cap and head,[418] which proves the head to be

Aristocratic as was ever seen,

Because it then received no injury

More than the cap; in fact, the ball could mean

No harm unto a right legitimate head;

"Ashes to ashes"—why not lead to lead?
