Wallenstein/The Piccolomini/A4S2

by Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller

SCENE II.

WALLENSTEIN.⁠COUNT TERTSKY.

WALLENSTEIN. (to Tertsky)

Who has, been taken?—Who is given up?

TERTSKY.

The man who knows our secrets, who knows every

Negociation with the Swede and Saxon,
Thro' whose hands all and every thing has pass'd—

WALLENSTEIN. (drawing back)

Nay, not Sesina?—Say, No! I entreat thee.

TERTSKY.

All on his road for Regenspurg to the Swede

He was plung'd down upon by Galas' agent,
Who had been long in ambush, lurking for him.
There must have been found on him my whole packet
To Thur, to Kinsky, to Oxenstirn, to Arnheim:
All this is in their hands; they have now an insight
Into the whole—our measures, and our motives.
