Four good Battalions looking southward there, with Cavalry to right; Ziethen's Cavalry, whose horses stand saddled through the night, ready always for the nocturnal "Pandourade," which seldom fails them. There, as elsewhere, are the due vigilances, watchmen, watch-fires. The rest of the Prussian Army is in its blankets, wholly asleep, while Daun stands waiting for the stroke of five.
Tempelhof had risen about three, as usual; had his guns and gunners ready; and was standing by the watch-fire, "expecting the customary Pandourade," and what form it would take this morning. "Close on five o'clock; and not a mouse stirring! We are not to have our Pandourade, then?"
I think it was not till towards six o'clock that the right wing generally became aware what the case was: "More than a Pandourade, yes;" though what it might be, in the thick fog which had fallen, blotting out all vestiges of daylight, nobody could well say.
