A very large and spacious country it is: it lieth between the two poles, and just amidst the four points of the heavens. It is a place well watered, and richly adorned with hills and valleys, bravely situate, and for the most part, at least where I was, very fruitful, also well peopled, and a very sweet air.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
