NAVEL RINGS: frightening, amusing, or caressing women and children. There were many such men both in the shops and houses- but there was no army. Order after order was issued by the French commanders that day forbidding the men to disperse about the town, sternly forbidding any violence to the inhabitants or any looting, and announcing a roll call navel rings that very evening. But despite all these measures the men, who had till then constituted an army, flowed all over the wealthy, deserted city with its comforts and plentiful supplies. As a hungry herd of cattle keeps well together when crossing aNAVEL RINGS: barren field, but gets out of hand and at once disperses uncontrollably as soon as it reaches rich pastures, so did the army disperse all over the wealthy city.

And Moscow engulfed the army ever deeper and deeper. When water is spilled on dry ground both the dry ground and the water disappear and mud results; and in navel rings same way the entry of the famished army into the rich and deserted city resulted in fires and looting and the destruction of both
NAVEL RINGS: the army and the wealthy city. The French attributed the Fire of Moscow au patriotisme feroce de Rostopchine,* the Russians to the barbarity navel rings the French. In reality, however, it was not, and could not be, possible to explain the burning of Moscow by making any individual, or any group of people, responsible for it.
