The bed is open; the tooth-brush hangs on the wall,

 The last twist of the knife.
 Morning at the Window
 They are rattling breakfast plates in basement kitchens,
And along the trampled edges of the street

is worthy of a moment's consideration.  It has been perfectly
investigated by General Bonnal, in the light of the notes of an
eye-witness, General Elchingen.  Thirty-six thousand troops were
then in Paris, but the weakness and incapacity of their officers
