 much cheaper rate than is possible in ordinary
dwellings.

The costumes of the peasants did not particularly please me.  The women
wear dresses of green or black woollen stuff, reaching to the ankle, and
trimmed at the skirt with broad  woollen borders.  The seams of
the spenser, and the arm-holes, are also trimmed with smaller 
borders.  On their heads they wear a handkerchief, and over this a kind
of shade, like a bonnet.  On Sundays I saw many of them in small, pretty
caps, worked with silk, with a border of lace of more than a hand's
breadth, plaited very stiffly; at the back they have large bows of fine
riband, the ends of which reach half down to their feet.  I found nothing
very remarkable in the dress of the peasants.  As far as strength and
beauty were concerned, I thought these peasants were neither more nor
less gifted than those of Austria.  As regards the beauty of the fair
sex, I should certainly give the preference to the Austrians.  Fair hair
and blue eyes predominate.

I saw but few soldiers; their uniforms, particularly those worn by the
king's life-guards, are very handsome.

I especially noticed the drummers; they were all little lads of ten or
twelve years old.  One could almost have exclaimed, "Drum, whither art
thou carrying that boy?"  To march, and to join in fatiguing manoeuvres,
carrying such a drum, and beating it bravely at the same time, is rather
cruel work for such young lads.  Many a ruined constitution may be
ascribed to this custom.

During my stay in Copenhagen I spent many very delightful hours with
Professor Mariboe and his amiable family, and with the kind clergyman of
the embassy, Herr Zimmermann.  They received me with true politeness and
hospitality, and drew me into their circle, where I soon felt myself
quite at ease.  I shall never forget their friendship, and shall make use
of every opportunity to shew them my appreciation of it.  Herr Edouard
Gottschalk and Herr Knudson have also my best thanks.  I applied to the
first of these gentlemen to procure
much cheaper rate than is possible in average 
 dwelling. 

 The costume of the peasants did not peculiarly please me.   The women 
 tire dresses of green or bootleg woolen stuff, reaching to the ankle, and 
 trimmed at the skirt with broad   woolen borders.   The seams of 
 the spenser, and the arm - holes, are besides trimmed with smaller 
 edge.   On their heads they wear a handkerchief, and over this a kind 
 of nuance, like a bonnet.   On Sundays I saw many of them in small, pretty 
 cap, worked with silk, with a border of lace of more than a hand's 
 breadth, braid very stiffly; at the back they have large bows of all right 
 riband, the ends of which reach half down to their feet.   I found nothing 
 very remarkable in the attire of the peasants.   As far as strength and 
 beauty were concerned, I thought these peasants were neither more nor 
 less gifted than those of Austria.   As regards the beauty of the bonny 
 sex, I should certainly grant the predilection to the Austrians.   Fair haircloth 
 and blue eyes loom. 

 I saw but few soldier; their uniforms, particularly those break by the 
 king's life - guards, are very handsome. 

 I especially noticed the drummer; they were all little lads of ten or 
 twelve years old.   One could almost have exclaimed, " Drum, whither art 
 thousand carry that boy? "   To march, and to join in fatiguing manoeuvres, 
 carrying such a drum, and beating it bravely at the same time, is preferably 
 cruel work for such young lads.   Many a ruin constitution may be 
 impute to this custom.
