With modernised spelling:
Right Honourable,
... The Queen of Swedes murdering her Roman marquis has much displeased the Pope and all the court of Rome, whither, if she should again repair, I suppose she would find but cold welcome. ...
Right Honourable,
Your faithful servant,
Charles Longland.
Leghorn, 5 January [1657/8]. [N. S.]
French translation (my own):
Très honorable Monsieur,
... Le meurtre de son marquis romain par la reine de Suède a profondément déplu au pape et à toute la cour de Rome, où, si elle devait se rendre à nouveau, je suppose qu'elle ne trouverait qu'un accueil froid. ...
Très honorable Monsieur,
votre fidèle serviteur,
Charles Longland.
Livourne, le 5 janvier [1657/8]. [Nouveau style.]
Swedish translation (my own):
Ers Ärevördighet,
... Att svenskarnas drottning mördat sin romerske markis har mycket misshagat påven och hela Roms hov, dit jag antar att hon bara skulle finna ett kallt välkomnande om hon återigen skulle vända sig. ...
Ers Ärevördighet,
Er trogne tjänare
Charles Longland.
Livorno, den 5 januari [1657/8]. [Nya stilen.]
