text_original: The imperialist army itself — at least that part of the force which was occupied on the Upper Rhine, under the command of a very incapable leader, the Margrave of Baireuth, was surprised and com  pletely defeated by a French force under Marshal Villars. Villars was thus enabled to make his way into the Palatinate and to lay it waste, as other com  manders sent out by King Louis had done before.
