Note 66 — XIX.
Reading edition
Sixteen of Toussaint’s generals were chained by the neck to the rocks of a desert island, and left there to die. Men were chained to the stones of the court-yard—blood-hounds tore their limbs asunder, and devoured their quivering flesh. The crowd looked on from the galleries with admiring horror.—Beard, pp. 257, 258. Qu. Rev., No. 42.
