The garrisonand people, who were warmly attached to Ottocar and encouraged withthe hopes of speedy relief, held out for five weeks; at length thewant of provisions and the threats of Rudolph to destroy the vineyardsexcited a small tumult among the people, and the governor proposed acapitulation.
During this time the discontents in Ottocar's army increased withtheir increasing distress; he was threatened by the approach of theHungarians toward the Austrian frontiers; he saw his own troopsalarmed..., dispirited, and mutinous; and he was aware that on thesurrender of the capital Rudolph had prepared a bridge of boats tocross the Danube and carry the war into Bohemia. In this situation, surrounded by enemies, embarrassed by increasing difficulties, deserted or opposed by his nobles, his haughty spirit was compelled tobend; he sued for peace, and the conditions were arranged by thearbitration of the Bishop of Olmuetz, the Elector Palatine, and theBurgrave of Nuremberg. It was agreed, on the 22d of November, 1276, that the sentence of excommunication and deprivation which had beenpronounced against Ottocar and his adherents should be revoked; thathe should renounce all his claims to Austria, Styria, Carinthia, Carniola, and Windischmark; that he should take the oath ofallegiance, do homage for the remainder of his territories to the headof the empire, and should receive the investiture of Bohemia, Moravia, and his other fiefs.
