A Worker Informs a Lord on the Subject of the Guillotine
Adapted from Heinrich Heine, Wintermärchen. 1844.
“King Louis the fifteen died,
Quite peaceful, alone in his bed.
The sixteenth, however, was guillotined,
Along with Queen Antoinette.
The queen showed great courage,as has been told, given the severe situation,
Although her small dog did yelp and did cry
While she suffered her neck laceration.”
