(Hair to the waist,
Limbs like a Venus):
Robes are displaced:
"Soldiers, please screen us!

"He at the front?
That is my lover:
Stood all the brunt;—
Now—the fight's over.

"Powder and bread
Gave out together:
Droll to be dead
In this bright weather!

"Jean, boy, we might
Have married in June!
This is the wall? Right!
VIVE LA COMMUNE!"
