49 dours of Vienna they had heard often enough in their lives : the fame of the brilliant capital of the Empire, as the seat of all earthly grandeur and pleasure, penetrates into the fur- thest corners of the extensive monarchy. All the border-officers, who had once dwelt as cadets in Vienna, had, from sorrowful recol- lection, related in the solitary frontier guard- houses much concerning the pleasures which they had there enjoyed. The Croatian car- riers — whose huge waggons, drawn by from tw...elve to sixteen small, meagre, shagiry horses, are so frequently seen in Vienna — had given at home many alluring descriptions of the glories of the place ; and so my men were filled with joy at the idea that they should themselves learn to know something of these wonders. It was curious enough that they could not be made to comprehend that the Emperor was not at Vienna : in their minds, Vienna and the person of the Emperor are conceptions so in- timately connected, that they could not se- parate them ; and, notwithstanding the pains I took to explain to them why the Emperor D 50 THE CIVIL WAR was now in a different place, they still shook their heads incredulously.
