Note 153 — Chapter XXXII · THE END OF THE FIFTH CAMPAIGN.
Reading edition
“No human intellect in our day could busy itself with understanding these thousandfold marchings, manœuvrings, assaults, surprisals, sudden facings about (retreat changed to advance); nor could the powerfulest human memory, not exclusively devoted to study the art military under Frederick, remember them when understood.”—Carlyle, vol. vi., p. 59.
