English: Like Steffan Goldschmidt, this weaver from Ulm gave up his trade to become a lansquenet. He was lucky to have been chosen as a 'Waibel' by the lansquenets; this was a well-paid post that attracted three times the usual rate of pay. A 'Waibel' assisted the corporal of the field in drawing up and practising the order of march and battle. He was also an important intermediary between the lansquenets and their captain.
