Whereupon the Prussian horse breaks in upon the adjoining Infantry of that flank (Austrian right flank, left bare in this manner); champs it also into chaotic whirlpools; cuts away an outskirt of near 2,000 prisoners, and sets the rest running.

This seems to have been pretty much the COUP-DE-GRACE of the Fight; and to have brought the Austrian dispute to finis.

From the first, they had rallied on the heights; had struggled and disputed.

Two general rallies they made, and various partial, but none had any success.

They were driven on, bayonet in back, as the phrase is: with this sad slap on their right, added to that old one on their left, what can they now do but ebb rapidly; pour in cataracts into Kingdom Wood, and disappear there?
