Notes: """Here Ehrenbreitstein with her shattered wall""¦_________, upon her height¦ ""Yet shows of what she was, when shell and ball¦ ""Rebounding idly on her strength did light:¦ ""A tower of victory! from when the flight¦ ""Of baffled foes was watch'd along the plain¦ ""But Peace destroy'd* what War could never blight,¦ ""And laid those proud roofs bare to Summer's rain __¦ ""On which the iron shower for years had pour'd in vain,""¦ Childe Harold Canto III¦¦ *It was blown up by the French at the truce of Leoben{Ital}" {printed from a separate plate under the image}
