The report:
Staadt, Octob. 4. The Queen Christina arriving lately at this place made her entry with extraordinary Ceremony, the whole City being drawn into arms, and placed in Order to receive her, and above 80 Great Guns discharged from the Ramparts, with several volleys from the Musqueteers. That day she was entertained with much liberality by General Wrangle, and the next diverted with several entertainments, and in the evening with Fireworks of excellent Artifice, wherein was exhibited the Queens name, and a Neptune above the water with two sea-horses and his Trident, to the great satisfaction of the Queen and all the spectators. ...
The Queen is returned with much satisfaction to Hambourg, from whence she has thoughts of departure to make another voyage into Italy.
Above: Kristina.
