  Polish Renaissance Warfare - Summary of Conflicts - Part Five
After the battle the noble levy, deciding their duty was completed, dispersed while the remaining forces moved towards the Ukraine and joined up with the equally victorious Lithuanian army.
After the battle the Cossacks paid the Tartars to give them their share of the prisoners so that they could be killed, amoungst the dead was the brother of the future King Jan Sobieski, Marek.
Batoh led to a new 36,000 army with a much-reorganised financial base, making forces easier to raise and maintain, the Kwarta tax was used to maintain the artillery and fortifications.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: John Sobieski
His elder brother Mark was his companion in arms from the time of the great Cossack rebellion (1648), and fought at Zbaraz, Beresteczko, and lastly at Batoh where, after being taken prisoner, he was murdered by the Tatars.
Their retreat was taken for flight by the Turks, who rushed forward in pursuit; the hussars turned upon them with reinforcements and charged again, when their shouts made known that the "Northern Lion" was on the field and the Turks fled, panic-stricken, with Sobieski's horsemen still in pursuit.
Still the battle raged for a time along all the line; both sides fought bravely, and the king was everywhere commanding, fighting, encouraging his men and urging them forward.

Successes at Zhovti Vody, Battle of Korsun and Battle of Pilavtsi (respectively, in Polish, Żółte Wody, Korsuń, and Piławce) against Hetman Mikołaj Potocki led to the Polish king giving royal recognition for the contentious privileges under the Treaty of Zborov.
After Khmelnytsky's forces were betrayed by their former allies, the Tatars, they suffered a massive defeat in 1651 at the Battle of Beresteczko, and were forced at Bila Tserkva to accept a loser's treaty.

In the mind of Prinz Eugen that one was not meant to be a battle where you had to conquer a normal Victory or to suffer a sad defeat: that affaire was a matter of life or death.
This battle was the crowning achievement of his military career, and it was also his last victory.
A suitable and enduring way to commemorate the Battle of Belgrade was the famous song of a german trooper "Das Prinz Eugen Lied", probably composed on the notes of the "Prinz Eugen Marsch" by one of the bavarian soldiers that fought that day.

On those earlier recordings, it was clear that Batoh had a fascination with both heavy Hawkwind style space rock and lighter, more minimalist acoustic folk music with a spacey edge to it.

 BAROQUE by Michael J. Mikoś
Writing "for the immortal glory of the Polish nation," Potocki contrasted in his epic narrative heroic scenes from the battle of Chocim with satirical descriptions of his effeminate contemporaries, moralizing about the harmful influence of the noblemen of privilege on the state of the republic.
Zbigniew Morsztyn, who fought in the Cossack and Swedish wars and was imprisoned by the Swedes, wrote a plaintive Song of Captivity, as well as the epitaph for Paweł Morsztyn, killed in the 1652 battle at Batoh.
The same battle, in which the Polish troops were defeated by Tartars and Cossacks, inspired Kochowski to commemorate his fallen comrades in a moving poem A Monument to the Brave Soldiers.

For once, Roman military strategy (with perhaps a good dose of luck thrown in as well) outfoxed the queen\'s forces, and she was defeated.
Rather than suffer the humiliation of being led through Rome in the traditional triumphal procession, Boudicca and her daughters killed themselves (an act the Romans could respect, as they held that suicide was often preferable to capture).
Having too few soldiers (20,000) to attack the Turks, who were ten to one, he wore them out, entrenching himself at Zurawno, letting the enemy hem him in for a fortnight, extricating himself with marvellous skill and courage, and finally regaining by treaty a good part of the Ukraine.

This being the situation after the Batoh defeat, the Court of King John Casimir conceived the idea to draw the Kairniiks nbo the war against the Tatars and Dnieper Cossacks, so that with the aid of these eastern neighbours of the Crimea and the Negais, the enemies of Poland might be taken into two fires.

It could just be that Ghost resides in another of Nichols' theoretical spaces -- "zero time" -- that ethereal bottle space outside our normal three-dimensional universe where time's grim march never even started.
It's a fantastic, paradisiacal island that a few fellow troubadours of perception -- Amon Düül II, "Battle of Evermore"­phase Led Zeppelin, the Grateful Dead/Charlatans/Jefferson Airplane S.F.-sound phalanx, Fisherman's Blues­era Waterboys, Pearls Before Swine, early-'90s Talk Talk -- have succeeded in reaching, generously leaving real-world runed markers to show the way.
For Snuffbox Immanence, painstakingly recorded over 12 months, Ghost eschews the brutish '70s hard-rock trappings that occasionally appeared on previous releases (and dominated the cerebellum-splitting '97 album Free Your Satori Mind, credited to Ghost offshoot Cosmic Invention) in favor of a largely acoustic soundworld.

 October 2004 Reviews
Opener “Panda” finds Beatlesque pop battling aggressive prog a la Styx or Kansas, and some heavily-treated guitars and vocal effects highlight “Gjort Bort Sig,” more proggy psych in the vein of Lucky Bishops, but also fondly reminiscent of Mike Patto and Timebox.
Unfortunately, the track deteriorates into a battle royale with guitar, horns, drums and unintelligible field recordings struggling for supremacy and the listener is left to sort out the cacophonous wall of noise, like listening to a shortwave radio station under the covers late at night with three channels intersecting each other at once.
