<blockquote>Schweinfurt, Lat. Schvinfurtum, an Imperial and Free City of German in Franconia, upon the Mayn, within the Dominions of the Bishoprick of Wurtzburgh, almost 7 German Miles from Bambe•g to the West, and 5 from Wurtzburgh to the South East. It was taken by the Swedes in the German War. This City, in the Year 1553, was seized by Albert the turbulent Marquess of ••andenburgh, who destroyed all its Suburbs to preserve it from the confederate Forces that endeavoured to recover it out of his hands: They came before it in Dec. that same Year, but were •hen forced to leave it; in the Spring 1554 they came before •t again, but could not presently take it. But Albert coming up to relieve it, and finding it could not long hold out, he plun¦dered and deserted it. The Soldiers from the Camp entred it in in the Morning, and plundered it the second time, and to get them out, the General was forc•d to set fire to the City in several places. See Sleid••'s History lib. 25.</blockquote>
