Annotatio III §.VIII: After Cassel — Frederick William the Great’s many peace attempts hindered by Dannhauer’s circle
After Cassel, the many peace attempts of Frederick William the Great, Elector of Brandenburg — whom our Author (p. 341) rightly calls Germany’s Mars and upholder of liberty and religion — are even publicly known;
yet other theologians near the March, Dannhauer’s disciples or fellow-initiates, blocked them out of deadly hatred of the Reformed,
and all but blasphemously prayed God to fill them ever more with hatred of Calvinists — not knowing what they asked.
Latin
Post Cassellanum verò, Mavortis istius Germaniae, Libertatisque juxtà ac Religionis Statoris, optimô suô meritô, Autori nostro p. 341. dicti, FRIDERICI WILHELMI MAGNI Electoris Brandenburgici, pacifica conamina quam plurima, vel in vulgus nota sunt, similiter tamen à Theologis aliis, in vicinia Marchiae, Danhaueri istius vel Discipulis, vel Symmystis, pro exitiali, quô adversus Reformatos odio perciti erant, & Deum tantùm non blasphemè precabantur, quò se magis magisque odio Calvinianorum impleret, (nescientes profectò quid peterent,) praepedita.
