elsewhere a memorable Day of Battle, as will be seen.

"Broglio marched in Five Divisions [Du Chatelet in the Second
Division, poor soul, which was led by Comte de Saxe): [Espagnac,
i. 198.] always in Five Divisions, swiftly, half a march apart;
through the Wurtemberg Country;--lost much baggage, many
stragglers; Tolpatcheries in multitude continually pricking at the
skirts of him; Prince Karl following steadily, Rhine-wards also, a
few marches behind. Here are omens to return with! 'But have you
seen a retreat better managed?' thinks Broglio to himself:" that is
one consoling circumstance.

In this manner, then, has the Problem of Bavaria solved itself.
Hungarian Majesty, in these weeks, was getting crowned in Prag;
"Queen of Bohemia, I, not you; in the sight of Heaven and of
Earth!" [Crowned 12th May, 1743 (Adelung, iii. B, 128); "news of
Prince Karl's having taken Braunau [incipiency of all these
successes] had reached her that very morning."]--and was purifying
her Bohemia: with some rigor (it is said), from foreign
defacements, treasonous compliances and the like, which there had
been. To see your Bavarian Kaiser, false King of Bohemia, your
Broglio with his French, and the Bohemian-Bavarian Question in
whole, all rolling Rhine-wards at their swiftest, with Prince Karl
sticking in the skirts of them:--what a satisfaction to that
high Lady!


BRITANNIC MAJESTY, WITH SWORD ACTUALLY DRAWN, HAS MARCHED
MEANWHILE TO THE FRANKFURT COUNTRIES, AS "PRAGMATIC ARMY;"
READY FOR BATTLE AND TREATY ALIKE.
