We are going to front troops who, under Prince Eugene, had the highest reputation. Though Prince Eugene is gone, we shall have to measure our strength against brave soldiers: the greater will be the honor if we can conquer. I will follow you straightway to the rendezvous of glory which awaits us." [_OEuvres de Frederic,_ ii.58.] MASKED BALL, AT BERLIN, 12th-13th DECEMBER. |
