We had left Mery in flames; and in the little hammock of Chatres, where headquarters had been established, there could no shelter be found for his Majesty except in the shop of a wheelwright; and the Emperor passed the night there, working, or lying on the bed all dressed, without sleeping.

Mery confidently prescribes, for the same purpose, the partes genitales of a cock prepared and administered in like manner.
