We spent the evening of the 28th of August, while the first performance of Lohengrin was taking place at Weimar, in Lucerne, at the Schwan inn, watching the clock as the hands went round, and marking the various times at which the performance presumably began, developed, and came to a close.
Whether Robeckal suspected how things were, we do not know; anyhow, he did not pursue the subject any further, but said: "Schwan brought two men to Girdel a little while ago; come with me to the upper story; we can listen at the door there and find out what they say."
A loud laugh, which shook the windows of the inn, made Schwan turn round hurriedly: at the same moment two muscular arms were placed upon his shoulders, and a resounding kiss was pressed upon his brown cheek. "What is the meaning of this?" stammered the host, trying in vain to shake off the arms which held him.
Luckily for Schiller his work was not long left to make its way as 'mere literature'. Among those to whom he had sent the sheets was a Mannheim bookseller, named Schwan, who had an eye for dramatic merit. Before Schwan had read many pages it came over him that here was a prize for the stage, and he hurried with it to Baron Dalberg, intendant of the Mannheim theater.
They are members of a secret organization, which is directed against the monarchy." "Impossible; it cannot be!" groaned Schwan. "I will conduct the gentlemen," said Robeckal, coming forward. "Scoundrel!" muttered the host, while Robeckal preceded the policemen up the stairs, and pointed to Girdel's room. "Open!" cried the brigadier, knocking at the door with the hilt of his sword.

So for a week he floated with the current of casual dissipation and then, caught for an hour by a refluent eddy of lonesomeness, four parts of the pentamerous clover-leaf were paired lovers, he penned a missive which might have changed much in his future career: He sent to Christian Schwan a formal proposal for the hand of Margarete.
On August 16, in obedience to orders from Army Headquarters, General Schwan left the bulk of his troops in the positions they had respectively occupied at the time of the receipt of the truce, and, accompanied by the artillery, returned to Mayaguez.
Having done his best with 'Fiesco' he sent it to Dalberg, who curtly refused it a second time. His theatrical hopes thus completely baffled, Schiller turned over his play to the bookseller Schwan, who gave him eleven louis d'ors for it and immediately published it as a book for the reader.
Generals Brooke, Schwan, and Haines, with their staffs, were on board. The troops carried included the Thirteenth Illinois, Seventh Ohio, Fourth Pennsylvania, Nineteenth Regulars, and Troops A and C of the New York volunteer cavalry. There were also one thousand animals, thirty days’ rations for thirty thousand men, a signal corps detachment, and an ambulance corps.
