This toss was accompanied by a look full of boundless temerity. There's a story of how a French soldier who had campaigned in Russia had his leg amputated at the knee because of gangrene. As soon as the painful operation was over, he grabbed the leg by the foot, threw it in the air and shouted: 'Vive l'empereur!' With the same kind of look, and more beautiful than ever, she threw both rings into the air and said to herself: Long live love!
