Mandrup Parsberg travelled with Henrik Belov and Henrik Ramel and Nicolaus Theophilus to Scotland in 1585 to clarify the legal status of the Northern Isles. Parsberg was apparently shown little hopitality in Scotland with the result that the Scots agents were to be treated accordingly on their missions to Denmark. They were in fact to sustain themselves. Parsberg travelled to England with Christian Friis, Henrik Ramel, Niels Krag and Jonas Charisius in 1600 and returned again in 1602.E.
