| The duke made good his words by giving his guest the estate of genappe, of which Louis took possession at the end of July. |
| His right was in advance of Planchenois, and his left rested on the genappe road, while his rear was skirted by thick woods. |
| The two great enemies were at that time close friends, and Charles was a very frequent visitor to genappe. |
| At the first sound of the Prussian drums and bugles, genappe was abandoned, and nothing thought of but headlong flight. |
| At nine o'clock the two heroes mutually felicitated each other at the small auberge of genappe. |
| Napoleon on the 17th had pressed on by genappe as far as Rossomme. |
