The original text
Written specifically for the Rederijkers, the play is freely translated from an unknown German original as Een Offer der Vrijheid (1762). Styled a "Historic-dramatic sketch from the seven years' war, in five acts" ("Historisch-dramatische Schets uit den Zevenjarige Oorlog in vijf bedrijven").
