SECT. 4

[Sect. 4] There remained only now the King of Denmarks Affairs to be adjusted and settled, which was soon after agreed on, between the Damsh Em∣bassador Monsieur de Mayerkron, and Monsieur Pom∣pone, Impowered by the French King to that pur∣pose, so a Peace is concluded between the Kings of France, Sweden and Denmark, at St. Germans the 2d. of September. 1679.

The main Articles (besides these common in all such cases) were, That the Article of Rosebield, Copenhagen, and Westphalia shall be confirmed: Den∣mark to restore to the Swedes, Lanascroon, Holsen∣burg, Monctrand, and Wismar, with the Isles of Ruen and Gothland, and all their Dependencies. Sweden to restore all they had taken from Denmark in the late War. The King of Denmark to take away all the Cannon he brought into the Swedis Ga∣risons, but none that he found there when he took the Places, and if he had taken away since, any belonging to the King of Sweden, he was to restore half of them: All persons (on both sides) to be re∣stored to all the Rights and Priviledges they enjoyed before the War. All Princes who desire it, may be comprehended in the Treaty: And Lastly, The Frenc King promises, that the King of Sweden shall ratify the Treaty within three Mone••••s, and that he himself will ratify is within six Weeks.

And this ended thus long and bloody War in Eu∣rope, But with much dissisfaction to almost all the Allies; Especidly Denmark and Bandeburg, but many wayes advantagious to France, and withal not very Hono••••rable to England, whose Mediation con∣tied even to the last; and yet had not the happi∣ness of Signing any one of the Treanes.
