Note 124 — Part II. Tradition.
Reading edition
"When, in July (the 15th) 1733, the king was graciously pleased to travel past this place to Trondhjem."
The many inaccuracies in this inscription will be seen from what has been written above. The inscription is also printed in Kjerulf's Journal of Christian the Sixth's journey in Norway, 1733, p. 40; in Bing's "Norges Beskr" (Description of Norway), p. 348; in Hjorthöi's "Description of Gudbrandsdalen," part ii., pp. 33, 34; and in "Budstikken," 1821, p. 111. In Edvard Storm's collected poems (Copenhagen, 1785), the post is engraved on the title-page. The first two lines of the inscription are by the celebrated poet Bishop Kingo, and are to be found on the so-called Reisedalere (journey dollars) which King Frederick IV. caused to be distributed on his journey through Norway in 1704.
