ReplyDeleteKohlhaas paraphrase: Pgs. 160-161
1. “No sooner had Kohlhaas received from Dr. Luther a copy of this proclamation, which was displayed everywhere in the principality, than notwithstanding the conditional character of its undertakings he disbanded his men, sending them away with gifts, expression of his gratitude and suitable admonitions. He surrendered all the money, arms and equipment he had taken as booty to the courts at Lützen as Electoral property; and when he had sent Waldmann to Kohlhaasenbrück with letters for the magistrate proposing the re-purchase of his farm if that was possible, and Sternbald to Schwerin to fetch his children whom he wanted to have with him again, he left the castle at Lützen and, taking what was left of his small fortune with him in the form of negotiable documents, made his way unrecognized to Dresden.”
2. Right after Kohlhaas saw a copy of the announcement, he dispersed his army, sending them away with gifts and his appreciation. He yielded all his spoils of war to the courts at Lutzen; sent Waldmann to Kohlhaasenbruck with letters for the magistrate asking for a re-purchase of his farm, and Sternbald to Schwerin to get his children. He left the castle with his documents and made his way unidentifiable to Dresden.
3. Kohlhaas dispersed his army, yielded his spoils of war, sent for his children and property, and left for Dresden unrecognized after the release of the proclamation.
4. Kohlhaas “disbanded his men” yielded his spoils of war, sent for his children and property, and “made his way unrecognized to Dresden” after the release of the proclamation.
