Bidrag til Dronning Christinas, det svenske Hofs og Corfitz Ulfeldts Historie, i Aarene 1651-1655, af Peder Juul's utrykte Breve til Charisius, article by Christian Molbech in Historisk tidsskrift, volume 5, page 324, published by Den Danske Historiske Forening, 1844
The letter excerpt:
... Den Polske envoyé Mr. Canesilles faaer et af Dronningens Orlogsskibe med sig til Dantzig, hvilket ikke skeer saa meget af den Respect, man haver om hans Herre, som for at medskikke en Person, adskilligt hemmeligt med Staden Dantzig at handle.
With modernised spelling:
... Den polske envoyé monsieur Canazilles får ét af dronningens orlogsskibe med sig til Danzig, hvilket ikke sker så meget af den respekt, man haver om hans herre, som for at medskikke en person, adskilligt hemmeligt med staden Danzig at handle.
English translation (my own):
... The Polish envoy, Monsieur Canazilles, takes one of the Queen's warships with him to Danzig, which is done not so much out of respect for his master as to send a person with him to deal secretly with the city of Danzig.
Note: Danzig is the old German name for the city of Gdańsk, located in what is now northern Poland in the historical region of Pomerania.
