The Education of Henry Adams (1907)
On l'a tuée à coups de chassepot
A coups de mitrailleuse,
Et roulée avec son drapeau
Dans la terre argileuse.
Et la tourbe des bourreaux gras
Se croyait la plus forte.

Qu'la Commune n'est pas morte.
Elle n'est pas morte ! (1886).
“The novelties of one generation are only the resuscitated fashions of the generation before last.”
