History of Friedrich II. of Prussia
Vol. XVII. (of XXI.)

CHAPTER VII
21/27

Kettle-drums, standards and the like insignia and matters of honor,--carry these to the Konigstein, with my regretful respects to his Polish Majesty.

Konigstein to be a neutral Fortress during this War.

"2.

Officers to depart on giving their parole, Not to serve against us during this War [Parole given, nothing like too well kept].
"3.

Rest of the Army, with all its equipments, munitions, soul and body (so to speak), is to surrender utterly, and be ours, as all Saxony shall for the present be." [In _Helden-Geschichte, _iii.

920-928, at full length--with Briedrich's MARGINALIA noticeably brief.] That is, in sum, the Capitulation of Struppen.
