While hiding in the Hypatian Monastery, this ruler was targeted by a group that (*) Ivan Susanin led into a forest out of which they never emerged. This ruler [emphasize] gave up the territory of Ingria in the Treaty of Stolbovo and later signed the Truce of Deulino, allowing for the return of his father Filaret.
