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

CHAPTER II
25/37

The Prussians, Sterbohol people, Mannstein-Henri people, left wing and right, are quite across the Zisca Back, on by Nussel (Prince Earl's head-quarter that was), and at the Moldau Brink again, when the thing ends.

Ziethen's Hussars have been at Nussel, very busy plundering there, ever since that final charge and chase from Sterbohol.

Plundering; and, I am ashamed to say, mostly drunk: "Your Majesty, I cannot rank a hundred sober," answered Ziethen (doubtless with a kind of blush), when the King applied for them.

The King himself has got to Branik, farther up stream.

Part of the Austrian foot fled, leftwards, southwards, as their right wing of horse had all done, up the Moldau.
