-The
-{\em finally\ clause}
-must follow the except clauses(s), if any.
-It is executed whether or not an exception occurred,
-or whether or not an exception is handled.
-If the exception is handled, the finally clause is executed after the
-handler (and even if another exception occurred in the handler).
-It is also executed when the {\tt try} statement is left via a
-{\tt break} or {\tt return} statement.
+A {\tt finally} clause is executed whether or not an exception has
+occurred in the {\tt try} clause. When an exception has occurred, it
+is re-raised after the {\tt finally} clauses is executed. The
+{\tt finally} clause is also executed ``on the way out'' when the
+{\tt try} statement is left via a {\tt break} or {\tt return}
+statement.
+
+A {\tt try} statement must either have one or more {\tt except}
+clauses or one {\tt finally} clause, but not both.
