His right wing holds the Homolka Hill, that too would now be valuable to Browne; and cannot be had gratis, as yesternight! Friedrich's left wing is on the Lobosch; Pandours pretty well extinct before it, but now from Welhoten quarter new Regulars coming on thither, as if Browne would still take the Lobosch? Which would be victory to him; but is not now possible to Browne.
That oozy Morell Brook issues on Browne's side of Lobositz, cutting Browne in two; but is otherwise all in Browne's favor. Browne extends through Lobositz; and beyond it, curves up to Welhoten on the River-brink; at Lobositz are visible considerable redoubts, cannon-batteries and much regular infantry.
This is done; the vineyard-fences swept; and the sweepings driven, in a more and more stormy fashion, towards Welhoten and Lobositz; the Lobosch falling quite desperate for Browne.
Quite near, through Welmina and a certain final gap of the Hills, Friedrich with the vanguard does emerge, "an hour before sunset;" overhanging Browne; not above a mile from the Camp of Browne. A very large Camp, that of Browne's, flanked to right by the Elbe; goes from Sulowitz, through Lobositz, to Welhoten close on Elbe; and has properties extremely well worth studying just now!
Left Wing, in condensed condition, shall fall down on Lobositz, and do its best. But nothing could avail them; the counter-fury being so great. They had to go at the Welhoten part, and even to run, plunging into Elbe, a good few of them, and drowning there, in the vain hope to swim.
