Summary of Peder Vibe's letter to Christoffer Urne, the Grand Chancellor of Denmark, and the government of Denmark in Copenhagen, dated March 12/22 (Old Style), 1653

The letter summary:

... [Stockholm] 12 Mars 1653. Hål på C. Ulfelds ben. — Pimentelli kontramanderad. — Drottningen trodde, att Danmark vill påföra henne krig.

With modernised spelling:

... [Stockholm] 12 mars 1653. Hål på Corfitz Ulfeldts ben. — Pimentelli kontramanderad. — Drottningen trodde att Danmark vill påföra henne krig.

English translation (my own):

... Stockholm, March 12, 1653. Hole in Corfitz Ulfeldt's leg. — Pimentel countermanded. — The Queen thought that Denmark wants to inflict war on her.
