But this destruction, coupled with a protracted siege of Rain (9–16 July), caused Prince Eugene to lament "... since the Donauwörth action I cannot admire their performances", and later to conclude "If he has to go home without having achieved his objective, he will certainly be ruined."
Men ødelæggelsen kædet sammen med den langvarige belejring af Rain (9.–16. juli) fik prins Eugen til at klage "… efter indsatsen ved Donauwörth kan jeg ikke beundre dem," og senere konkluderede han: "Hvis han må tage hjem uden at have nået sit mål, vil det bestemt være ødelæggende for ham."
