On the contrary he had repeatedly stated to Prince Ludwig's daughter and to Lieutenant Butzow that he was not Leopold. It seemed that they had all been so anxious to believe him king that they had forced the false position upon him, and now if he had indeed committed the atrocity that Coblich charged against him, who could wonder?
Andreas arose from his chair slowly but neither of them noticed how feeble and labored were his motions, like those of a weak old man and clasped in both of his own Ludwig's great brown hand, while with a look of love he said: "It is as thou wouldst have it, my son.
He managed to procure a dilapidated old piano, put it in tune with consummate patience, by means of a common door-key, and actually, then and there, on the 14th of October, 1808, composed his well-known beautiful song, 'Ein steter Kampf ist unser Leben. "The storm passed over. Prince Ludwig's influence obtained the young man's pardon and release.
The erstwhile commander of this vessel must have discovered in some manner that he has been fooled." "We'll have every ship of war hereabouts after us, sir," said Frank.
