[1] This and the following letter were found in Brandt's pocket-book when he was arrested, and were first published by Dr. Jörgen Hee, in his account of his penitent's conversion.
[2] An allusion to Brandt's letter to the king, intended to overthrow Holck.
[3] The original is preserved in the Royal Library at Copenhagen.

[6] Reverdil, p. 287.
[7] Reverdil, p. 290. Though these details may appear trivial, they are worth notice, because Brandt's caustic manner procured him many enemies, and rendered the efforts made to save him of no effect.
