haue hope to spread Gods glorie farther then euer hath bin by our common knowledge vnderstoode or our highest senses and reasons could reache vnto And surely this is a true testimonie of greate goodnesse intended that our Nation in suche a christian sorte and maner refuseth no hazarde nor daunger to bryng Infidelles too the knowledge of the omnipotente God yea albeit great wealth and commoditie maie rise to vs of their labours yet the purpose of manifestyng Gods mightie woorde and maiestie among those that feed like monsters and rather liue like dogges then men doeth argue not onely a blessed successe but perswadeth a prosperous and beneficiall retourne For admitte that no further gaine then Goddes glorie were looked for and that our peaceable Prince nourisheth people only to that respect as meÌ„bers instruments for the redeeming of many a loste soule we ought to imagin there can not be a greater grace nor a more richer and precious thyng expressed in this vngracious tyme and season And those that offereth to do their best in the furtherance of christian religioÌ„ are sure diyng or liuyng in that determination to attain the vnspeakable and wished ioyes thei desire besides here to remaine with immortal fame whiles the worlde lasteth The cause and constancie of suche as shewe any courage at all either springes from a deuine delite in good doyng or a worldly desire of well woÌ„ credite valiantly gotten And the coward Spirite of those that dare attempt no hazardes comes from a feble iudgement or a weake womanish bodie that trembles to take in hande any stoute or manly enterprise Fortune herself giues place to any inuincible courage and the fortitude of the mynde coÌ„quers countries and ouercoÌ„meth the greatest conquerors that is vnder the cloudes I read of the firste greate Turcke Otthoman and others with all their successours an incredible discourse and yet by their mightie monarchies am forced to beleeue their dignities and destenie did muche depende vpon their resolute myndes The greatnesse of Alexanders hart was no whit inferiour to the greate and good Fortune he possessed And so generally to speake of the forwardnesse of man and woorthie laude that folowes vertuous actioÌ„s I could occupie your eares with the hearing of many a noble historie and proue thereby that nothyng is comparable to a couragious determination For as many aucthours affirme and mannes actions declare that man is but his mynde so it is to bee daily tride that the bodie is but a mix ture of compoundes knitte together like a fardell of fleashe and bondell of bones and vnited as a heauie lumpe of Leade without the mynde in the sillie substaunce of a shadowe We see a marueilous boldnesse in some horsses that with the least motion of rodd or sticke will take hedge or diche wheÌ„ a royle of a greater stature is a fraied of a little bushe Among Birdes in like maner is a wonderfull difference and yet the Cocke in his combate surmounteth them all But Man the Kyng of all creatures by force and discretion gouernes what he pleaseth and coÌ„passeth thinges that the base expectation neither can comprehende nor dare not attempte Now vnder correction was not this a valiaunt aduenture to take in hande a voyage neuer sailed before but by one Gabotha whiche hereafter I will speake of and in this sailyng to incounter suche huge mountaines of Iee and passe the same so orderlie and so soone without any probable certaintie of a happy successe and safe retourne Albeeit that Maister Forboysher had asaied the daÌ„ger with some good signe of benefite not long agoe Yet the course was so combersome and the passage so perilous that few men were willyng to make a triall of the iourney till these GeÌ„tlemen and their couragious coÌ„panions of their owne good will tooke vpon them to see the vttermost of the matter and to abide the bronte of all that might happen And when thei were vndersaile beholde how obediently and painfullie thei behaued them selues and forgettyng delicate and fine feedyng tooke what was fitte for the tourne and stoode contente with what portion was appointed as men resolued to suffer a little scarcitie and sorrowe in hope of aboundance and greate pleasure to come And agreed in felloweship so faithfully y it was to bee iud ged y one Mother had sent so manie children abroad to shew what mutuall loue ought to be among brethren And in verie deede the greatest conquest can bee made is the victorie and masteryng of affections for the auoydyng of contencious tumultes and brablyng curiositie whiche here tofore hath hindered not onely great seruices but also hath bredde greate mischiefes and wounded a common wealthe with an infinite number of beggerie botches and incurable diseases By vnion and amitie wee are taught bothe by the Bee and the Ant a lesson woorthie notyng and so suckyng in season the fruite of our labors with sugred pleasures our paines be recompensed Now returnyng to my former discourse I would a little touche by your licence the hardie and brutishe maner of the people lately discouered for it seemeth by their bold and beastly fashion that thei dare do any thing that their consceites will allowe or courage of man maie execute Firste thei aduentured by struggelyng and strengthe to ouercome man to man any one of our companie and as I heare saie xiiii of them gaue charge vpon xxx of ours and stoode stoutely to their enterprise Hauing with their able bodies suche a kinde of agilitie and swiftnesse as is to bee wondred at Besides thei haue a dissemblyng pollicie to seeme lame when thei pretende a mischief and carriyng suche a dreadlesse mynde and desperate intention thei rather flyng themselues headlong into the Sea from the top of a mightie mountaine then yeld to the mercie of any that maie subdewe them This is a straunge kynd of stoutnesse and peraduenture procedes froÌ„ some wronges thei haue suffered by some other Nation then ours whose crueltie hath made them so fearfull to come in handes That thei haue no skill of submission nor will not learn to knowe the courtezie of a Conqueror Which resolution in theÌ„ though barbarous it seeme showes a settled opinion thei haue in their force and liberties and vtters a miraculous manlinesse to abounde in that brutish Nation The more praise and renowme shall thei haue that seketh to reforme these foolishe hardie Infidelles and retourne too grope and finde out the commodities of that place and coÌ„ditions of the people enhabityng there And as touchyng the singulare gaine that maie growe by their trauailes that goeth thether I remitte that to the triall all readie hadde and Iudgemente of those that can looke depely into the bowels and bothome of suche causes and businesse assuredly beeleuing by that I haue seen and heard that many good thynges will fall out to vs by the iourney Then lette vs with wishyng well be furtherars and fauourars of that noble enterprise whiche froÌ„ the begin nyng of our age was neuer brought

vnderstoode and learned the third parte of the worlde is vnhabited and one Columbo an Italian in Kyng Henry the seuenths tyme was set a woorke by the Kyng of Aragon and Queene Isabella which Columbo made a discouerie of the Indians by a voyage he tooke in hande of whiche discouerie sence that season is growne suche an infinite treasure as is incredible to be spoken of And this is to bee proued that there are nombers of places in the Indians not yet possessed nor neuer were in the handes of Christen people neither yet can not bee offensiue too the Spaniardes if Englishe menne enioye them For in coÌ„science and right thei were better to haue our companie then neither wee nor thei enioye the mightie Masse of wealthe that these Indians would yelde vs. The earth was made for y childreÌ„ of men neither the Spaniard nor the Frenche hath a prerogatiue too dwell alone as though God appointed them a greater portioÌ„ then other Nations In deede hee that lies idlelie at home and hopes that GOD will caste kyngdomes in his lappe maie as well catche at the Cloudes in the ayre as come by any commoditie of the Earth But to those that trauailes abroad a double or treble parte is a lotted as a manne might saie that Destinie makes her dole and giueth an almose to them that reacheth out their handes for it But too suche as thinketh scorne too come when the dole is a dealyng she neither castes a bare chipping of bread nor flings any thankfull chaunce of good Fortune I trust wee are not afearde to offende those that with that golde seeketh meanes to conquere the whole world and encomber by crueltie and pride ali the kingdomes of the earth Why may not wee as well by pollicie aud Sworde if it come too that pointe posses a peece of those places that falleth by enheritance too none but sutch as are able to get them and haue power to defend them As our Prouerbe is Winne Golde and weare Golde So the necessitie of millions of men biddes them seeke abroad for some benefite or lie at home in exstreme ruine and beggerie For want of good exercies to mainteine a multitude that daylie encrease the fine and stoute stomackes stoupeth to steale and the cunnyng and craftie wittes compasseth by falshead to come by true mens Goods so that here at home is no other occupation commonly vsed But a newe kinde of arte how to deceiue one another And surely it is no maruell for if people bee not employed to win their foode and that neither Plague nor Warres doe deminish the multitude I feare in a whyle we shall haue neither meate for our mouthes nor houses for our heades I wonder why there is more men hanged in Englande in the space of one yere then in fiue regions our neibours in the space of ten yeres put to execution Belike if those busie Bodies and stout corrages were occupied about honest causes they would bee rather able to giue bread to the needie then ready too spoyle and cut the throates of the welthy and ritch You know and all the world may see that we had neuer bigger nor better Shippes nor more abundance of them whiche Uessailes were they abroad the sight shot of them would make our enemies affraid and tremble And those shippes sparkled seuerall waies about some noble discouerie if our foes in the meane while offered iniurie to our countey O what a discourage shoulde the enemy haue when at their backs thei should finde our shippes vnder saill armed and apointed too giue them a charge and a foyll By the reporte of sutch as bee wise and worshipfull if our goodly shippes were employed where lawfully we may goe and vse good traficke Their yerely commoditie would fiue tymes surmount the reuennue of the Crowne Further I am sure of if wee tooke a custome too be abroad both the Turkes Gallies and al other christen princes powers on the Seas would giue them free passage or stand in awe of our Princes Nauie Than iudge what is lost by this our slacknes and slouth and consider what gain and glorious victorie may bee won with a little trauaill and exercise the Mother and Nurse of life and good lawes a thing moste liked in a common weale and followed and embraced of euery good mynde But I doubt whether Alexander the great was more to be praised in his conquestes for that he beegan with a kingdome than sutch as with little maintenance attaines by exercise of wit and bodie to any noble territorie For Alexanders fame by Philip his Father was spread so farre that the Macedonians name was a terrour too their enemyes and Alexanders Purse and power with the greatesse of his harte was in a maner sutche readie Proppes to holde hym vppe that hee could not fall but by the rebuke of Fortune or want of worldly pollicie But sutch as from small abilitie or suckor doe rise too greate wealth or gouernmente hauyng neither Kyng nor Kingdomes too comforte them are of great hart and corrage neither inferiour to Hercules nor in their mindes behind no iote the mightie Alexander for worthy renoume For as by our comon opinion they can not sincke that are held vp by the Chin so is it hard too swimme in a strong Flood or bee any way aflote where is greate weakenes of bodie and little strength to withstande the streame I can doe no more with my penne but praise and commende all Noble and manly exercises in whiche exercise I put these parties afore rehearsed and all other that may and doe by their paines and discoueries helpe their Countrey too commoditie And will spare neither charges studie nor trauell in preferryng of Gods honor and wealth of the Prince they were borne vnder And albeit that this iorney is a speciall thing to be spoken of yet in reading Belle Forest in the second Tome and other Authours I finde that Gabotha was the firste in Kyng Henrie the seuenths daies that discouered this frosen land or Seas froÌ„ sixtie seuen towards the North and from thence towards the South along the cost of America to thirtie sixe degrees and a halfe as it is affirmed in the sixth booke of the Decade This beeing doen at that season for the discouerie of Cattaye auouched by the Spanishe Decades and other bookes Authors of as great credit But this Gabothaes labour robs no peece of praise from maister Forboyshers for Gabotha made but a simple rehearsall of such a soyle And Maister Forboysher makes a perfaite proofe of the Mines profite of the countrie By whiche action he encorageth sondrie good subiects to search out the secretes of naturall causes and hidden Treasures kept for wante of exercise in Nauigation from our knowledge and vse And as I might properly say hee hath broken the Ice explained the passage and opened the Port of present commoditie and gaine Thus trusting you that reade this woorke will take in worth my good will and paines
