We. the Commanden in Me of His Majesty's
sea and land forces now before Copeifiagen, judge
it expedient at this time to summon you to surren-
der the place, for Cie purpose of avoiding the fur-
ther effusion of blood, by giving up a defence which
it is evident cannot long be continued.
The King. our Gracious Master, used every en-
deavour to settle the matter now in dispute, in the
most conciliating manner, thtough his diplomatic
servants.

To convince His Danish Majesty and all the
work], of the reludance with which His Majesty
finds himself compelled to have recourse to Sr
we, the undetssgned. at this moment wl.en
troops are b•fore your gates, and cur batteries
to open, do renew to you the °Ter of the
advantageous and conciliatory terms which
proposed through h it Maj:sty's Ministers to
Court.
It you will content to deliver up the Danish
