Many battles were fought by the Old Swiss Confederacy, 1315–1799. The Battle of Morgarten of 1315 is famous as the first military success of the Confederacy, but it was an ambush on an army on the march rather than an open field battle. In the song he speaks of ambushing the enemy and a shot rang out but at the same time his love was a victim of the battle. I wonder if the helped the men in battle? Help with loading thier guns or something else.
