The Funeral March

It is not by chance that the Funeral March is not the last movement of the Eroica Symphony, but the second.

《葬礼进行曲》不是《英雄交响曲》的最后乐章，而是第二乐章，这并非偶然。

上图中，戈尔巴乔夫与1985年3月15日参加契尔年科的葬礼，他正走在灵柩护卫队的边上走过红场。

On March 17th he had his wish, or most of it: a state funeral for all the poilus at Les Invalides, and then a simple family burial.

在3月17日，他实现了他的希望，或者基本实现了：在巴黎荣军院，为所有步兵们举行国葬，然后再搞一个简单的家庭葬礼。
