Summary of Peder Vibe's letter to Christoffer Urne, the Grand Chancellor of Denmark, and the government of Denmark in Copenhagen, dated May 18/28 (Old Style), 1653

The letter summary:

... [Stockholm] 18 Maj 1653. B. Skytte till Surbrunn. — C. Ulfelds ovissa afresa. — Drottningens "retirat lefnad."

With modernised spelling:

... [Stockholm], 18 maj 1653. Bengt Skytte till Surbrunn. — Corfitz Ulfeldts ovissa avresa. — Drottningens »retirat levnad.«

English translation (my own):

... Stockholm, May 18, 1653. Bengt Skytte to Surbrunn. — Corfitz Ulfeldt's uncertain departure. — The Queen's "retired life."
