Napoleon initially did not believe that Davout's single Corps had defeated the Prussian main body unaided, and responded to the first report by saying "Your Marshal must be seeing double!", a reference to Davout's poor eyesight.
Alguses Napoleon ei uskunud, et Davout' üksik korpus lõi Preisi peaväge ilma abita, ja vastas esimesele ettekandele: "Ütelge marssalile, et ta näeb kahekordselt", vihjates Davout' kehvale nägemisele.
