The History of Peter the Great, Emperor of Russia

Note 71 — CHAP. XIV.

T. (Tobias) Smollett translation

M. de Voltaire calls this city Wibourg, in this and some other places of his history. The French are not always very attentive to the right names of places, but here it is of some consequence. Wibourg is the capital of Jutland in Denmark. Wiburn, the city here meant, is the capital of Carelia in Russian Finland.
