From Wallenstein's Camp: A Play by Friedrich Schiller

male · defiant · 57 sec

Up above Wismar my fathers dwell. SERGEANT (pointing to the Trumpeter). And he's from Eger--and I as well: And now, my comrades, I ask you whether, Would any one think, when looking at us, That we, from the North and South, had thus Been hitherward drifted and blown together? Do we not seem as hewn from one mass? Stand we not close against the foe As though we were glued or moulded so? Like mill-work don't we move, d'ye think! 'Mong ourselves in the nick, at a word or wink. Who has thus cast us here all as one, Now to be severed again by none? Who? why, no other than Wallenstein!
