Charles Monologue from The Robbers

From The Robbers by Friedrich Schiller

male · defiant · 54 sec

Good! good! Now some of you must climb up the trees, or conceal yourselves in the thickets, and some fire upon them in ambush-- (SCHWEITZER: That part will suit you, Spiegelberg.) The rest will follow me, and fall upon their flanks like furies. (SCHWEITZER: There will I be!) At the same time let every man make his whistle ring through the forest, and gallop about in every direction, so that our numbers may appear the more formidable. And let all the dogs be unchained, and set on upon their ranks, that they may be broken and dispersed and run in the way of our fire. We three, Roller, Schweitzer, and myself, will fight wherever the fray is hottest.
