Note 101 — Chapter V
Reading edition
Handl. rör. Skand. hist., vol. xvii. pp. 151-155 and 157-159.

Skand. hist., vol. xvii. pp. 159-160. No reference, however, is made to it in other writings; and as it is clearly contrary to all the monarch's later views, it is certain that it did not emanate from him. Probably it was a mere concept drawn by Brask in the hope that it would meet with royal favor.
