Excerpt from Lives of the Most Eminent Sovereigns of Modern Europe The education of Gustavus was calculated to render him a warrior, for, while the learning of those times was carefully instilled into his mind, his frame was inured to hardships of all kinds, and became alike indifferent to heat and cold, and at the same time his limbs were rendered active by various kinds Of gymnastic exercises. Early in his childhood he learned the duties of a common musketeer, and at the age of sixteen he made a campaign against the Danes, in which he greatly distinguished himself both for valour and conduct.
