fourth and fifth they began to allay and proved fair enough and next Day at seven in the Morning we discovered about a League from us to Leeward a pretty large Ship which we chased all Night long gained much upon her and had it not been for a Fog that fell for two Hours by favour of which she sailed away she had certainly given us either Bullets or Bread which last we now most wanted all our Provisions being spent and the Winds still contrary On the eighth we saw Pewets and other Sea-birds who are never seen very far from the Shoar next Day being the ninth we met with a sort of little Sparrows who passed over our Sail-yards without resting themselves and this was an infallible sign unto us that we were not far from Land On the 12th at break of Day we descry'd two Ships at a League 's distance from us but we could not come up with them our Ships being too foul too full of Herbs and Shell-work to think of gaining upon Vessels newly careened as we apprehended these to be On the 13th we saw several Birds that waited as well as we for a favourable Wind to put them a-shoar next Day the Wind was boisterous and we had much Rain Hail and melting Snow And we lost Company with the Sun of Africa in a Fog who not observing the Signal sailed away while we were setting our Round-tops that were displaced in order again On the 15th the Wind being somewhat allay'd and the Weather clearing up about break of Day we saw five Ships three to the Star-board and two to the Lar-board but we were not in a Condition to go and look after any them By the sixteenth our Provision was all spent and we necessitated to use the Sugar and Cocoe of the Merchants to make Chocolate for the Ships Crew which is a Liquor that is of a very nourishing nature and might serve instead of Victuals but our Seamen who were not accustomed to it did not like it at all and said it made their heads giddy On the 17th at Sun rising we thought we had the sight of the Tower of Cordovan but our joy was short-lived and this Tower was all of a sudden Transformed into a Ship At last on the 18th after a traverse of sixty seven Days we sounded and found a Bottom and were come parallel to Pertuis de Maumusson about twenty Leagues distance from the Shoar On the ninteenth we had but a small Wind. But on the 20th we discovered Rochebonne which is fifteen Leagues wide of Pertuis d' Antioch the Sea tho' very even proved now to be broken and violent About Noon we saw four Ships and they Steered the same Course with us Soon after we discovered the Steeple of God's Island about five in the the Evening the Whale-Tower in the Isle of Rhee and at Night we came to an Anchor to wait for the Tide On the 21st we weigh'd and by break of Day we found our selves within two Cannon-shot of four Ships which we had seen the Day before which made us put out French Colours They did the like and we sent our Canoe on board them to know what news from France They happened to be a Bark of the Isle of Oleron and three St. Malo Men half men of War and half Merchants who were going to take in Salt in the Isle of Rhee and from thence to fish on the bank of New-found-Land They gave us six Baskets of Bread one Barrel of Bacon and some Beer which a little refreshed our men The St. Malo men passed by Pertuis Breton and we by that of Antioch and so on till about Midnight we cast Anchor before Rochelle where we found the Sun of Africa who was got into that Port two Days before us FINIS An EXTRACT of the French King's Grant for the Printing of this Book BY the King's Grant made at Paris the 15th of October 1697. and signed Midy the Sieur de Fer Geographer to the Dauphin is allowed to Print Sell and Dispose of by the Hands of what Printer or Bookseller he pleases a Book Intituled A Relation of a Voyage made on the Coasts of Africa Brasil the Streights of Magellan and Islands of America for the space of eight Years And all Persons of what Quality or Condition soever they be are forbidden to Print the said Book without the Consent of the said Sieur de Fer upon Pain of such Penalty Confiscation of the Copies c. as are held forth in the said Grant Entred in the Hall-Book of the Company of Stationers and Printers of Paris the 12th of October 1697.
