the moūt Taurus beginneth by litle to decrease towardes Pamphylia ▪ to change name béeing no longer called Taurus but Cragus where standeth also a town by the riuer Eurimedon y inhabitāts wherof do worship Venus do accustomably offer vnto hir the bloud of swine other beasts Ther folow other cities of Pāphilia as Corycus Pergae and Phaselis very much through blown with winds Amōg the thickest of whom towards the easte lye the Lycaones men also very fit for warre and well practised in shooting Whose neighbours are the Pi●idei whose principall cities be these Termesus Lyrbae and Selgae which they say was of aunciente time founded by the Amyclei From thence when towards the east the sea commeth in with a round reache like a circle all the lande that lyeth neare therto must neads also resemble the same shape for that cause it is not muche vnlike to the sea Euxinū In that nooke be the Cilices very farre into the East the aunciente records of antiquitie since our forefathers dayes called that place the straights of Asie That cuntrey is muche moystned with many riuers not all rysing there but comming from other places whereof there be thrée chiefe Pyramus Pinarius and Cydnus which only amōgst the rest rūning through y midst of Tharsus deuideth y citie with his cōfortable stream a citie most noble for beutiful buildings where they say lōg ago the famous horse Pegasus left his hoofe therof y citie was called Tharson ▪ And also where the report goth Bellerophō was cast down by him so departed to Iupiter whereby y place becā renoumed wher he had cōtinuedlōg before sequestred from all companie of man There are to be séen also many other cities of Cilicia standing here and there among whiche Lyrnessus is one and Malos by the sea side Diuers also there are which stande partely within the lande and partly on the shore The land Comogena is neare hereto and the cities of Syria nowe Suria a large countrie and wide reaching vnto the Sea but the side whiche lyeth to the West stretcheth to the foote of mount Casius Who so vnderstandeth wel the situation and fourme hereof with studie and diligence shall soone perceyue howe the other parts of Asie lye For the fourme thereof consisteth of foure angles the parte that lyeth easterly surmounteth the other in multitude We declared howe that all Asie was deuided into twayne and that it stretched forth to the mount Indus whiche is one of the boundes therof especially where it lyeth to the North and Nilus an other where it runneth to the west The Ocean standeth in steade of the rest whiche is called Indicus on what parte it loketh to the East and boundeth at south on the read sea called Mare Rubrum But Syrie wherof we speake but nowe béeing thrust as it were almost into the middes and bowels therof and touching the sea both at East and south hath within it that way many citties Which bicause it standeth lowe and is enclosed with two very high hilles Casius at the west side and Libanus at the east y inhabitaunts cal it in their tōgue a valley And bicause it séemed vnto thē more commodious and far more frutefull than any other for grasse corne and such like and easie to be passed vnto by ship many noble mē and such as were of great abilitie chose that place to dwel in building there citties townes and distinguishing them by diuers names For those which dwell more within the conunent land are by one name called Sirij But they whiche lye nigh the Sea side are Phoenices ▪ which in times pa●●e comming from the Erytheri are thought to haue bin the firste which assayed the Sea with shippe and inuented the trade of marchandise whereby men might be pronoked to conetousnesse and desire of riches And firste also which founde out the motions of the heuens and course of the starres with the supernall bodies by the excellencie of their witte and industrie These are the inhabitours of Ioppes now Iaffa Gaza and Elicides and which of long continuaunce haue possessed the fayre and aunciente citie Tyrus nowe Sur builded from the beginning Then they which founded the watry citie Byblon nowe Gae●a and windy Sidon now Sidoni vpon the banke of the calme riuer Bostrenus who possesse also Tripolis now Tripol de la Suria Orthosides and Marathon nowe Maugath and the noble citie Laodex nowe Lyche builded as they say by Neptunus where Daphne was weaned Also the people of Apamia within the mayne lande where the riuer Orontes nowe Tarfaro running towardes the Easte parteth Antiochia in twayne And generally all Syria is very riche and plentyfull abounding with corne and pasture for grazyng of cattell at whose inlande partes which are to the Southe moste adiacent lyeth the entrance to the sea Arabicum which washeth the shoares of both Arabia and Syria continually howbeit by little and little turning to the east approcheth the Elani where as the Arabes lye possessing a countrey of all other moste rythest and precious It standeth highe and is enuironed with two seas Persicum and Arabicum and lyeth also open vnto two wynds For the Arabicum requireth a Western wynd and Persicum an Easterne But that parte of Arabia whych lyeth to the east and south is washed also with the Red sea called Mare rubrum Of this countreye I wyll speake somewhat bycause it conteyneth many regions whose power and wealth all other doe wonder at and are amazed to beholde their greate store and abundaunce And I wyll not omitte that béeing verye muche delyghted with Sacrifice there is no one parte of all the countrey but dothe smelle of Parfume and Myrrhe and of soote smellyng Calamus whiche are caste into the fire to burne Who will not take it for an vndoubted truth that Iupiter being father to Dionysius tooke him foorth of his thinghe at the celebration of whose natiuitie he replenished the whole countrey with fragrant odoures And that those shéepe wherwith Arabia aboundeth obteyned that guift that while they were féeding they should be clad in thick and fine fléeses and the pondes and waters swarme with varietie and multitude of Fishes And that so many flocks of birds forsoke the deserte and came thither bringyng with thē boughs of precious Cinamom wherwith that coūtrey now is wonderfully stored Moreouer that this Dionysius after that he was borne and somewhat sprong vp wearing on the skinne of a yong Goate and hauing his lockes tressed vp with yuie and vine leaues his belly ful of good wine went wandering about all the countrey rather pouring foorth vnmeasurablye than bestowing moderatly great riches sowing golde like séede to bryng foorthe fruite which should neuer perish And for that cause all that region vntill this daye is thought to abound with such commodities that the very
