[London] Oct. 13. On Thursday the 13th his Danish Majesty,
having been just nine weeks in England, after taking an
affectionate leave of all the royal family, set out for
Dover on his way to France. . . A little before his
departure, October the 10th, he gave at the Hay-Market, a
masquerade, which for the number and dignity of the company,
the richness variety, and taste of the dresses, the grandeur
and beauty of the scenes, and the elegance and good order
with which the whole was prepared and conducted, was the
most splended and magnificent, that ever was seen in
England, or perhaps any where else. . . [16 more lines of
detailed description of the expenses, dresses, jewels, etc.]
