Summary
This quote suggests that after a night of being on guard and keeping watch for the enemy, there was no sign or sighting of them in the morning. The statement implies that the enemy had either retreated, moved away, or managed to avoid detection. It highlights the uncertainty and unpredictability of warfare, where one moment there is a sense of imminent danger, and the next moment it disappears, leaving a sort of relief and questioning of whether it was merely a temporary respite or if the threat has truly vanished.
