The news report:

On a delibéré toute la semaine derniére, sur les affaires de la Reyne Christine: & on a examiné le traité de commerce entre cette Courone & les Provinces Vnies, dont quelques difficultez ont fait différer jusqu'à présent la ratification. Le 4e de ce mois, vn Envoyé Extraordinarie de Pologne eut audience du Roy de Süéde: & il luy demanda du secours pour la guerre que le Roy & la République de Pologne ont résolu de faire contre les Turcs. Il eut ensuite audience des deux Reynes. Le Sieur Hoghuysen Secretaire d'Estat, est allé trouver Sa Majesté Süédoise à Kongsor.

English translation (my own):

The affairs of Queen Kristina have been deliberated all last week; and the treaty of commerce between this Court and the United Provinces has been examined, some difficulties of which have hitherto delayed ratification. On the 4th of this month an envoy extraordinary of Poland had an audience with the King of Sweden; and he asked for help for the war which the King and the Republic of Poland have decided to make against the Turks. He then had an audience with the two queens. Sir Hoghuysen, Secretary of State, went to find His Swedish Majesty in Kongsor.


Above: Kristina.
