and Distributing it where due and Inviolable observers of their Words and Contracts The Bulck and Stature of the Bodies of the Danes does in somewise suit with the Grandure of their minds and tho the Luxury of the Age has so far prevailed in Denmark as to quash the growth of their Modern Danes in respect of their Ancestors yet they be still more Large Strong Vigorous and long Liv'd than most or any of their Neighbours They are generally fair Complexion'd their Hair something inclined to Yellow Their common Food is on Corn Fish and all manner of Tame and Wild Beasts that are Mans Meat which they have in great abundance And amongst their many kind of Fowl they have greater store of Wood-Cocks than any other Countrey whatsoever The Old Liquor of Denmark was Oel Ale or Beer made of Malt and Water and is still their common and most general Drink And tho Wine has now obtain'd much among them yet perhaps their excess therein has Curtailed much of their pristine Vigour and that had they kept constant and solely to their Oel it might have spirited them to as great Actions as those of their Predecessors As for the Danish Language it is only a distinct Dialogue of the Teutonick the High-Dutch Sweedish Norwegion Flandrian and English being no more and all Derived from one Mother Tongue As for the Government of Denmark without dwelling upon the Fabulous stories of King Dan it is Evidently to be made out that it was a Monarchy in the Consultship of Catulus and Marius near a hundred years before Christ after which we have an account of one Gothrick King of the Danes in the time of the Emperour Charles Magne from whom the present King of Denmark is Descended in a Lineal Succession though some Authors do affirm that the Ancient Line failed in the Death of King Christopher the 3d. The Crown of Denmark it self was Elective untill the year 1660. Nevertheless the Senatours generally chose the Eldest Son of their Soveraign who from that time forth was Stiled the Prince and the other of the Kings Sons the Dukes and Heirs of Norway Now their Election in former times was performed after a very Solemn manner for as many of the Nobles as were Senatours and had Power of Voting and giving their suffrages having pitcht upon some Commodious place in the Fields where having placed themselves in a Circle upon so many great Stones they past their Votes and having Seated their new Elected Soveraign in the middle upon a Stone Higher than the Rest they Saluted Him King There being to this Day in Zealand such a company of Stones which bear the Name of King-Seat But after the Crown of Denmark had been thus Elective for above Two Hundred years in the present Oldenburg Family the chief Power of Election as I said being in the Nobility those Nobles took this means and occasion to Capitulate advantages to themselves as Previous and Preliminary Conditions to the Election which every succeeding King was forced to comply with to the Curtailing Dispoiling and Weakning of the Crown and to the prejudice and disadvantage of the other Orders of the Kingdom insomuch that none but a Noble Man could Buy Purchase or possess in his own Right any Seigniory or Mannour A Cittizen or Burgher was not capable of purchasing more than a House and perhaps a Guarden and an Orchard or some such slender business The Lands and Revenues of the Crown were let our to Noble Men it may be not to the Third often not to the Fourth part of what they were really worth and yet the King could not raise the Old Rents tho the Nobles in the mean while kept the under-tennents Chewing upon a rack Rent The Pesants in the Danish Island were Villains Reguardant to the Mannors of Noble Men. All publick Offices and advancements were Monopolized by the Nobility And meer merit without the Circumstances of Nobility of Extraction and Grandure of State was excluded all Countenance Protection and Preferment Thus the Crown of Denmark which shown with so much Lustre Renown and Glory in former Ages was Dwindled almost into an Aristocrasie and hardly the shaddow of what it had been some Centuries before But upon the Occasion of a Warr between Carolus Gustavus King of Sweeden and Frederick the 3d. King of Denmark in the Year 1660. Great Priviledges were proposed and conferred upon the Burgers of Copenhagen the better to Encourage them to stand the more Valiantly in Defence of their King and Countrey least the Prospect of mending their Circumstances under a new Master should prevail with them to abandon their Old Now the Priviledges Established in that juncture were an equal admission to Offices and Honours according to the Deserts and Capacities of them and their Children a Power of Purchasing Lands and Lordships with the same Rights as the Nobles Copenhagen to be one of the Estates of the Kingdom and to have a Suffrage in all publick Councels and Resolves and the Crown turn'd from Elective to Hereditary and so freed from the Guardianship of the Nobility Thus that juncture how Menacing soever it seemed to the whole Realm of Denmark yet proved of such advantage as to rein-state the King in all that Power that was necessary for the Defending of His Dominions against the Invasions and Insults of Forreigners and the Oppressions and Usurpations of one fellow Subject upon an other Thus the Complexion of that Government is much more Vigorous and there is a better Circulation of the Blessings to be Enjoyed under a happy Sway since this Reformation than had been for some Ages before under several Reigns together The account of the Kings of Denmark before the Planting of Christianity in that Country will be found a difficult matter to be Stated their Chronicles before that time being for the most part feign'd and fabulous as well as that of other Nations But according to the most careful Judicious and Modestest Relations of that matter we shall set down the following Catalogue 1. Harald being forced to Fly his Kingdom by the Accomplices of his Brother Reinferd had recourse to the Emperour Ludowick for Succour who Furnished him with Forces for the Reinstating him in his Kingdom but upon Condition he would abandon his Heathenisme and be Converted to Christianity Accordingly he was Baptized in the year 826 and was forthwith set again upon his Throne But not long after he turn'd Idolater again adn so remained till he was prevailed with to Renounce it by St. Angchar 2.

And I shall pass on to the Nobles who never Claim nor pretend to the Titles of Dukes Earls or Barons but are such as have had a single Coat of Arms belonging to their Family for many Ages Denmark is said to have at this day some Families of that Nobility of that antiquity as VVren and others as to have been present at the Signing of a Treaty of Peace between Charles Magne and the Danish King Hemmines on the Eider Out of this Body of the Nobility are drawn the Senators of the Kingdom or the Members of the Council of State who are Elected to the Number of 28. All a Noblemans Goods moveable and immoveable are at his Death divided amongst his Children the Son having two Moities and a Daughter only one The King cannot by the Laws of Denmark purchase any part of a Noble-Mans Estate neither can the Nobles buy any of the Crown Lands some Officers of the Crown Knights of the Order of the Elephant Vice-Roys and Governours of Provinces and Places were formerly chosen out of the Body of the Nobility and nominated by the Election of the Senators bating the Knights of the Order But at present since the Reformation of that Kingdom half of those Officers are drawn out of the Body of the Burgery the King being willing to consider and Reward that part of the State which served with so much Courage and fidelity at the Siege of Copenhagen when that Capital of the Kingdom was almost the only place which sustained almost all Efforts of the Sweedish Army which had taken in all the rest of the Kingdom But here I will Insert a Catalogue of the Principal Families of the Nobility now in Denmark in the following Alphabetical Order A Achsel Appelgard Alefeld Andersem B Bielke Banner Brache Bilig Below Bilde Brokenhusem Biorn Beck Blick Bassi Bax.
