Sect. Par. 5.

"The King, my master, still sees with sorrow
that, since that epoch, the offers of medication and
services from the King and his allies, have not
produced the desired effect: nor could they incline
the Empress to agree to a medication for restoring
peace to the East, nor to the North of Europe."

Observations on Par. 5.

The sorrow may be admitted, as it is not
pretended to be accompanied by surprise.

Sect. Par. 6.

"Under these circumstances, when Russia
refuses to accept every medication, and the continuation
of hostilities proceeds from this refusal only,
his Britannic Majesty and his allies think, they
should strongly represent to the Court of Denmark:
that this Court appears to them entirely precede
from every stipulation of a treaty merely defensive;
and even add, that, in the present case, the
joining the Danish forces, either by land or seas,
to those of Russia, would even cause Denmark
to be considered as one of the powers at war, and
could (not) but justify the King of Sweden in
asking for a speedy and efficacious assistance
from his Brittanick Majesty, and his allies, from
which his Swedish Majesty has accepted a pure
and unlimited medication."

Observations on Par. 6.

In this paragraph we see promulgated an
article of a new complexion in the law of nations:
that if two powers engage in a defensive treaty,
and the casus foederis occurs, it depends upon
any power whatever to dissolve the engagement at
pleasure.
