The letter excerpt:

Den 16. Oct. "Pimentelli opvarter Dronningen flittig. I Søndags forleden var han til et Begravelse; da, i at geleide Liget fra den ene Kirke, hvor det stod, til den anden, hvor det begroves, gik han den hele Vei med Hatten i Haanden ved Dronningens Vogn, hvilket aldrig af nogen Kongelig ministro tilforn her er giort. ..."

"Hr. C. Ulfeldt har paa Dronningens Anmodende, om de Penge hun vil laane af ham, sig ikke resolveret; uagtet at man ham blandt anden Forsikkring haver til Pant anbudet det Amt Wollin i Pommern. Man siger, at hun begierer af ham tre Millioner Rigsdaler." ...

With modernised spelling:

Den 16. oktober. "Pimentelli opvarter dronningen flittig. I søndags forleden var han til et begravelse; da, i at gelejde liget fra den ene kirke, hvor det stod, til den anden, hvor det begroves, gik han den hele vej med hatten i hånden ved dronningens vogn, hvilket aldrig af nogen kongelig ministro tilforn her er gjort. ..."

"Hr. C. Ulfeldt har på dronningens anmodende, om de penge hun vil låne af ham, sig ikke resolveret; uagtet at man ham blandt anden forsikring haver til pant anbudet det amt Wollin i Pommern. Man siger, at hun begærer af ham tre millioner rigsdaler." ...

English translation (my own):

October 16. "Pimentel attends diligently to the Queen. Last Sunday he was at a funeral; when, in escorting the body from the one church where it stood to the other where it was buried, he walked the whole way with his hat in his hand by the Queen's carriage, which has never been done before by any royal minister here. ..."

"Lord C. Ulfeldt, at the Queen's request, has not resolved on the money she wants to borrow from him, despite the fact that, among other things, he has the county of Wollin in Pomerania as a pledge. It is said that she wants from him three million rigsdalers."
