They write from Paris, that the great preparations [   ]
there consist in Ramillies perukes, rich shoulder knots, and
embroider'd furniture for their horses.  Gentlemen
voluntiers having been so extreamly well disciplin'd in the
heel at dancing schools, that they, 
  If from the fight they dance away, 
  May live to dance another day.
