Vol. XV. (of XXI.) by Thomas Carlyle]@TWC D-Link book Vol. XV. (of XXI.) 7/26 [_Bericht von der am 21 Mai, 1745 bey Landshut rorgefallener Action, in Feldzuge,_ i. 155-158); _OEuvres de Frederic,_ iii. 120-124 (who misdates, "23d May" for 22d).] Colonel Winterfeld was made Major-General next day, for this action. Colonel Winterfeld is cutting out a high course for himself, by his conduct in these employments; solidity, brilliant effectuality, shining through all he does; his valor and value, his rapid just insight, fiery energy and nobleness of mind more and more disclosing themselves,--to one who is a judge of men, and greatly needs for his own use the first-rate quality in that article." Friedrich has left the mouse-trap open;--and latterly has been baiting it with a pleasant spicing of toasted cheese. |
