Duke Frederick had come to Stockholm to marry the king s sister Hedwig Sophia of Sweden Hedwig Sophia . The duke, who was ten years older than Charles ref Massie writes ten years older , which obviously is a mistake. ref , was even wilder than the young king and incited the latter to outrageous acts. Together with a following of young people they gallop ed through Stockholm, yanking hats and wigs off people s heads. They threw out furniture from the Karlberg Palace palace windows and cherry pits at the king s ministers. Many of the stories about their doings were exaggerated and are thought to have been spread to discredit the duke. For instance, there is no proof to the story that they chopped the heads off calves, dogs, goats, and sheep, whereafter they were said to have thrown the carcasses through the palace windows. According to this story, the floors in the palace were slippery with blood running down the palace staircases. Popular discontentment grew with the king s and duke s excesses. One Sunday three pastors in Stockholm churches held sermons with the theme Woe thee, o land, when thy king is a child sourcetext source Bible version King James book Ecclesiastes chapter 10 verse 16 .

During one drunken night a bear was killed when it fell through a window to the palace yard after having been forced to drink wine. Charles was quite drunk, and after this incident vowed never to drink strong alcohol again. He famously kept the vow to the end of his days. Sources cite book title Peter the Great author Robert K.
