Notes | Czarniecki troops under command of Captain Szandarowski surprised the Swedish king in the morning when sitting to table in the parish house of the village of Kopki near Rudnik. The king managed to escape thanks to a swift horse. Charles X Gustav quite fast obtained the reputation of the "brigand of Europe" (rozbójnik Europy), as he was called by his adversary, Stefan Czarniecki, "who was capable of beginning horrors of war in any part of the old continent". Italian damask was adorned with the symbol of the Holy Spirit and a border of double scrolls and palmettes. | |||||||||||||||||
