The Library of historic characters and famous events of all nations . All is now hushed—Eight me, Chamberlain ! \lhe groom of the Chamber, who had entered during tJie lastdialogue, and had been standing at a distance and listening toit with visible expressions of the deepest interest, advances inextreme agitation, and throws himself at the Dukes feet. And thou too! But I know why thou dost wish My reconcilement with the Emperor. Poor man ! he hath a small estate in Carnthen, 238 HISTORIC CHARACTERS AND FAMOUS EVENTS. And fears it will be forfeited because Hes in my service. Am I then so poor, That I no longer can indemnify My servants ? Well! To no one I employ Means of compulsion. If tis thy belief That fortune has fled from me, go ! Forsake me. This night, for the last time, mayst thou unrobe me, And then go over to thy Emperor. Gordon, good night! I think to make a long Sleep of it: for the struggle and the turmoil Of this last day or two were great, Mayt please you! Take care that they awake me not too early. —Schiller, tratislated by
