Description

Folio 155v. To Ehrenschildt. He is trying to ascertain if the elector [of Saxony] wishes to have a Swedish diplomat at Dresden and hopes that if that is the case, the King of Sweden will chose him [Ehrenschildt]. [Adam Ernest] Senfft [von Pilsach, Saxon envoy extraordinary to Stockholm, Mar - Nov 1693] knows nothing of this, so perhaps Ehrenschildt is destined for the brandy-wine of Danzig rather than for the wine of Saxony.

Date and Place: 1693 Nov 14/24 Dresden
