Goetz, SelbitzandTroopers.

Goetz.

They are coming in full force. It was high time that Sickingen’s troopers joined us.

Selbitz.

We will divide our party—I will take the left hand by the hill.

Goetz.

Good—and do thou, Lerse, lead fifty men straight through the wood on the right. They are coming across the heath—I will draw up opposite to them. George, stay by me—when you see them attack me, then fall upon their flank: we’ll beat the knaves into a mummy—they little think we can face them.

[Exeunt.
