Excerpt from Peder Juel's letter to Peder Charisius, dated April 9/19 (Old Style), 1653

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 347, published by Den Danske Historiske Forening, 1844
The letter excerpt:

Den 9de April. ... "Dronningen vil skikke to Orlogsskibe til Wismar, at afhente den engelske Ambassadeur."

With modernised spelling:

Den 9. april. ... "Dronningen vil skikke to orlogsskibe til Wismar, at afhente den engelske ambassadør."

English translation (my own):

April 9. ... "The Queen wants to send two warships to Wismar to pick up the English ambassador."


Above: Kristina.

Note: The English ambassador = Daniel Lisle.
