Explanation

Napoleon escaped from exile on Elba in 1815 and briefly returned to power in France during the period known as the One Hundred Days. He was defeated by the allied armies at the Battle of Waterloo, then forced to abdicate and exiled to Saint Helena. Thus, “escaped from Elba, was defeated at Waterloo, and was exiled again” is the most accurate description.
