Excerpt from Johan Ekeblad's letter to his father Christoffer Ekeblad, dated March 3/13 (Old Style), 1653

Johan Ekeblads bref 1: Från Kristinas och Cromwells hof, page 237, published by Nils Sjöberg, 1911


The letter excerpt:

1653 den 3 martii af Stockholm.
... Dronningen reser emillomåt åt Jacobsdaal och eljest att spassera. ...
Joan Ekeblad.

With more modernised spelling:

1653, den 3 martii av Stockholm.
... Drottningen reser emellomåt åt Jakobsdal ock eljest att spatsera. ...
Johan Ekeblad.

French translation (my own):

1653, le 3 mars, de Stockholm.
... Aussi, pour le reste, la reine se rend occasionnellement à Jacobsdal pour se promener. ...
Jean Ekeblad.

English translation (my own):

1653, March 3, from Stockholm.
... Also, for the rest, the Queen occasionally travels to Jakobsdal to go for walks. ...
Johan Ekeblad.
