  No.
Don't think of exception handlers as just some other kind of statements,
that you can drop in just ahead of the word "end".  Think instead of a
"handled sequence of statements" - a set of statements to which the
exception handler(s) apply, the word "exception", and the handlers.

The end of the "handled sequence of statements" is indeed signalled by the
keyword "end", but there is also a beginning to the "handled sequence of
statements" and it's a "begin" (or "accept ...  do").
