^{page 108 note 1} The Arnsberg. The little strong Town is probably Elderheim.

^{page 110 note 1} There is some confusion in language here.

^{page 110 note 2} These officers, if their names are correctly given, do not appear to be mentioned elsewhere except ‘ de Turnet,’ who is ‘ Baron de la Tornetta.’ Khevenhüller. XII. 1213.

^{page 110 note 1} The Häselberg. (Wille, Hanau im dreissigjährigen Kriege, p. 132.) or possibly the ’ Allbuch.’

^{page 111 note 1} ‘ Hew ’ may be the real name, or it may be an error for ‘ Hume ’ or ‘ Home’. Thomas Hume of Carrolside was Lieut. Col. of the Rhinegrave's regiment of horse.

^{page 111 note 2} Fiscots' is possibly (a Lindsay of) ‘ Pitscottie’.

^{page 113 note 1} Heilbronn.

^{page 113 note 2} Göppingen.

^{page 113 note 3} ? Greenway.

^{page 113 note 4} This seems to be Kirchheim unter (Teck)

^{page 113 note 5} Riedberg, (Theatr. Europ: iii, p. 639.)

^{page 114 note 1} Taupadel. He had been captured by Butler at the taking of Schorndorf.

^{page 114 note 2} His army crossed the Rhine not at Cologne, but at Andernach. But he himself went on to Cologne. Theatr. Europ., iii, p. 372. Poyntz's story is quite correct.

^{page 116 note 1} Nördlingen surrendered on good terms the day after the battle. The whole story seems misplaced.

^{page 116 note 2} Abel Moda a Swede was the real commandant, but Huncks was a real person, who fought at Maestricht. Markham, ‘ Fighting Veres, ’ p. 445.

^{page 116 note 3} Mannheim.

^{page 116 note 4} Nephew of the cavalry general, and defender of the Wülzburg against Gustavus Adolphus in 1631. cf. Harte, ii, p. 126 note. Pappenheim had but one son, born in 1618.

^{page 116 note 5} i. e. across the Rhine at a point between the two towns.

^{page 117 note 1} Schmidtberg, best known for his defence of Philippsburg after Nördlingen.

^{page 117 note 2} Elsass Zabern.

^{page 117 note 3} Kreuznach.

^{page 117 note 4} Harte, ii, p. 117. Modern historians say little of this matter, but the Theatrum Europœum has a plan of the place, ii, p. 604.

^{page 118 note 1} Ulm.

^{page 118 note 2} Vitzthum was the real commander. Possibly Kniphausen was present.

^{page 118 note 3} Carretto, Marchese di Grana : it was really Lamboy.

^{page 119 note 1} Saarbrück and Zweibrücken.

^{page 119 note 2} Nassau-Saarbrück.

^{page 120 note 1} Peter Götz, younger brother of the general, Hans Götz.

^{page 120 note 2} This seems to be a garbled version of the defeat of Colloredo the younger by Gassion in March, 1636. Colloredo was captured and imprisoned : not by Gallas however, but at Vincennes.

^{page 120 note 3} Cardinal De la Valette. He had with him the flower of the French nobility. Barthold, i, p. 265.

^{page 121 note 1} This must refer to a date late in 1636. See Introduction.

^{page 121 note 2} Elsass Zabern.

^{page 121 note 3} In the Spring of 1636.

^{page 122 note 1} See note 4 on p. 84.

^{page 122 note 2} Speerreuter. There is again some confusion in language.

^{page 122 note 3} A useless lacuna : there is nothing to be supplied.

^{page 123 note 1} Main. The word is almost illegible.

^{page 123 note 2} Peter von Holzapfel ; called also Melander.

^{page 123 note 3} Stift Bremen as before, p. 47.

^{page 123 note 4} Weser.

^{page 123 note 5} Barthold, i, p. 364. But this is certainly October, 1636 and proves that Poyntz could not have written till very late in 1636 or early in 1637. See the Introduction.

^{page 123 note 6} ‘ Courants. ’ “Newsletters ” of the time.

^{page 124 note 1} The Duke of Barlamont was really a Walloon nobleman.

^{page 126 note 1} This was clearly in Würtemberg. This second wife is the lady mentioned by Aubrey (Surrey, IV, 212, 213) under the curious title ‘ Anne Eleonora de Court Stephanus de Cary in W rtemberg,’ and we may refer all the events alluded to to the time of Butler's command at Schorndorf in 1635. The Story of Lützen is with Poyntz's habitual disregard of chronology, put after this second marriage.

^{page 127 note 1} ? Swaggering : really ineffectual, but making a brave show.

^{page 128 note 1} This fixes the position of Poyntz's estates in the neighbourhood of Schorndorf.

^{page 128 note 2} Again a lacuna without meaning. Butler died at Schorndorf. Michelburg (= Mecklenburg throughout) must be Würtemberg.

^{page 128 note 3} John Taylor, cf. State Papers : Domestic : 1635–6, passim.

^{page 129 note 1} Augsburg according to Poyntz himself (p. 57 supra).
