> Those engines of mischief were sentenced to die
By unanimous vote of the trade
And Ludd who can all opposition defy
Was the grand executioner made
> And when in the work he destruction employs
Himself to no method confines
By fire and by water he gets them destroyed
For the elements aid his designs

The story says that pitying birds buried them so. This seems a pretty fancy. I find it more likely that they collected leaves themselves and perished through unregulated interest in the variety of foliation...
