The Death of Wallenstein Act 3 Scene 5 by Friedrich Schiller Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2013

To them enter COUNT TERZKY.

COUNTESS.
Terzky!
What ails him? What an image of affright!
He looks as he had seen a ghost.

TERZKY
(leading WALLENSTEIN aside).
Is it thy command that all the Croats——

WALLENSTEIN.
Mine!

TERZKY.
We are betrayed.

WALLENSTEIN.
What?

TERZKY.
They are off! This night
The Jaegers likewise—all the villages
In the whole round are empty.
WALLENSTEIN.
Isolani!

TERZKY.
Him thou hast sent away. Yes, surely.

WALLENSTEIN.
I?

TERZKY.
No? Hast thou not sent him off? Nor Deodati?
They are vanished, both of them.
