Ramillies

The opportunity was much like that which Marlborough saw at Ramillies, and was used with equally decisive effect.

The victory of Ramillies was followed by the immediate occupation of the whole of Belgium.

In the completeness of the disorganisation inflicted by defeat, Ramillies has perhaps no superior in modern times except Waterloo.

In fact the allies had much the same sort of opportunity which Marlborough used with such overwhelming effect at Ramillies.
