A fragment from the Duke of Marlborough written at the close of the Blenheim battle describes 30,000 killed or wounded as French and Bavarians retreated.

Pure glycerin does not freeze or evaporate under ordinary temperatures and shows minimal loss before 260 degrees. It burns pale when heated and decomposes with a strong odor around 360 degrees. Its nonvolatile nature makes it a valuable vehicle for pigments in stamping and ribbons. Crystallization occurs when frozen, but melting prevents return to the original state, and adding water stops crystallization. Intense cold yields a gummy mass that cannot fully harden or crystallize.
