and_o bow_v of_o the_o meridians_fw-la which_o by_o their_o oblique_a &_o overthwart_a fall_n into_o the_o parallel_n do_v so_o much_o disfigure_v in_o the_o uttermost_a part_n the_o true_a shape_n of_o the_o region_n as_o they_o can_v scant_v be_v know_v and_o as_o for_o the_o mariner_n card_n because_o their_o parallel_n of_o latitude_n be_v also_o of_o equal_a distance_n from_o the_o

and_o thereby_o cause_v great_a error_n which_o to_o avoid_v he_o make_v the_o space_n of_o his_o parallel_n and_o degree_n of_o latitude_n to_o increase_v by_o little_a and_o little_a towards_o the_o

care_n be_v to_o show_v what_o part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v know_v to_o the_o ancient_a man_n that_o the_o limit_n and_o bound_n of_o their_o geography_n may_v not_o be_v unknowen_a to_o the_o

in_o the_o year_n of_o our_o lord_n 1579._o do_v not_o differ_v in_o any_o one_o point_n that_o i_o can_v find_v from_o the_o last_o universal_a map_n of_o mercator_n that_o famous_a cosmographer_n who_o as_o i_o understand_v be_v himself_o also_o sometime_o a_o cutter_n &_o graver_n of_o such_o map_n and_o globe_n as_o gemma_fw-la frizius_n do_v cause_n to_o be_v print_v in_o his_o time_n from_o who_o mercator_n learn_v great_a part_n of_o his_o most_o excellent_a skill_n in_o cosmographie_n but_o of_o one_o thing_n i_o be_o sure_a y_fw-fr e_o ptolomey_n be_v first_o master_n to_o they_o all_o who_o have_v set_v down_o so_o good_a and_o perfect_a rule_n of_o describe_v the_o earth_n be_v it_o whole_a or_o part_n as_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o most_o learned_a man_n no_o better_o can_v be_v invent_v true_o when_o i_o do_v first_o behold_v these_o latter_a map_n and_o see_v that_o the_o parallel_n towards_o the_o pole_n be_v as_o long_o as_o the_o very_a equinoctial_a itself_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o somewhat_o strange_a for_o than_o i_o say_v that_o a_o ship_n in_o sail_v about_o the_o world_n under_o the_o parallel_n of_o 60_o degree_n shall_v by_o this_o mean_n make_v as_o long_o a_o voyage_n as_o that_o which_o sail_v about_o the_o world_n right_a under_o the_o equinoctial_a which_o voyage_n be_v twice_o as_o long_o for_o this_o contain_v in_o longitude_n 21600_o mile_n which_o be_v the_o whole_a compass_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o other_o contain_v in_o longitude_n 10800_o mile_n which_o be_v just_a half_a so_o much_o and_o no_o more_o but_o after_o that_o i_o have_v take_v better_a advisement_n thereof_o i_o find_v by_o measure_v with_o my_o compass_n that_o one_o degree_n of_o the_o meridian_n next_o to_o the_o 60_o degree_n of_o latitude_n do_v comprehend_v two_o of_o such_o degree_n as_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o that_o one_o degree_n of_o the_o meridian_n cross_v the_o the_o parallel_n that_o have_v 70_o degree_n of_o latitude_n do_v comprehend_v 3_o degree_n of_o the_o equinoctial_a line_n and_o so_o i_o find_v the_o degree_n towards_o the_o pole_n to_o wax_v great_a and_o great_a by_o which_o degree_n i_o perceive_v their_o meaning_n be_v to_o have_v the_o longitude_n of_o their_o parallel_n to_o be_v measure_v &_o not_o by_o the_o degree_n of_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o by_o y_z e_z mean_v their_o parallel_n shall_v have_v each_o one_o as_o nigh_o as_o may_v be_v his_o due_a longitude_n proporcional_o even_o as_o they_o have_v in_o the_o globe_n moreover_o the_o shape_n quantity_n and_o distance_n of_o such_o country_n as_o have_v be_v find_v out_o of_o late_a day_n must_v needs_o be_v more_o perfect_o set_v forth_o in_o these_o map_n then_o in_o those_o y_o it_o have_v be_v make_v heretofore_o because_o the_o true_a longitude_n &_o latitude_n of_o those_o place_n be_v not_o so_o well_o know_v then_o as_o they_o be_v now_o albeit_o i_o fear_v i_o that_o of_o many_o place_n in_o the_o indies_n there_o be_v as_o yet_o but_o few_o true_a longitude_n know_v for_o it_o be_v not_o so_o easy_a a_o thing_n to_o get_v the_o true_a longitude_n of_o every_o place_n as_o the_o true_a latitude_n thereof_o and_o have_v not_o the_o late_a maker_n of_o map_n be_v great_o holpen_v by_o the_o map_n and_o card_n of_o such_o learned_a pilot_n as_o have_v traveil_v those_o country_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v commit_v as_o great_a error_n as_o those_o that_o write_v before_o they_o and_o of_o one_o thing_n i_o do_v assure_v myself_o that_o in_o these_o latter_a map_n more_o place_n be_v describe_v then_o ever_o be_v know_v or_o discover_v as_o for_o example_n the_o north-part_n of_o groyneland_n crockland_n &_o america_n all_o which_o they_o make_v island_n and_o yet_o never_o sail_v about_o they_o and_o special_o on_o the_o north_n side_n as_o it_o may_v well_o be_v gather_v by_o the_o vain_a attempt_n of_o diverse_a nation_n to_o find_v out_o new_a way_n in_o the_o north_n sea_n to_o the_o molucas_n both_o by_o east_n and_o west_n for_o be_v a_o little_a enter_v into_o those_o sea_n they_o be_v quick_o drive_v back_o either_o by_o extreme_a cold_n by_o great_a yse_n or_o by_o the_o rage_a flood_n breed_v of_o snow_n and_o fall_v from_o the_o mountain_n of_o the_o next_o continent_n and_o make_v in_o some_o place_n such_o whirlpool_n in_o the_o sea_n as_o if_o any_o ship_n chance_n to_o come_v nigh_o they_o it_o be_v soon_o swallow_v upppe_n neither_o do_v i_o think_v that_o king_n arthur_n in_o his_o time_n ever_o send_v as_o it_o be_v report_v any_o of_o his_o people_n to_o inhabit_v those_o island_n be_v place_n in_o my_o opinion_n more_o meet_a for_o whale_n and_o monstruous_a fish_n to_o dwell_v in_o then_o for_o man_n and_o special_o for_o english_a man_n which_o be_v not_o able_a to_o suffer_v the_o cold_a winter_n at_o wardhouse_n to_o which_o place_n some_o of_o our_o mariner_n do_v sail_v in_o summer_n season_v every_o year_n and_o yet_o wardhouse_n have_v scant_a in_o latitude_n 71_o degree_n much_o less_o than_o be_v they_o able_a to_o winter_n in_o those_o place_n that_o have_v 77_o degree_n of_o latitude_n as_o the_o north_n side_n of_o groynland_n and_o crockland_n have_v moreover_o the_o north_n side_n of_o the_o promontorye_n tabin_n have_v 76_o degree_n of_o latitude_n which_o place_n whatsoever_o pliny_n say_v thereof_o in_o his_o four_o book_n of_o history_n yet_o i_o believe_v that_o no_o roman_a come_v ever_o there_o to_o describe_v y_z e_o promontory_n neither_o do_v i_o believe_v that_o the_o friar_n of_o oxford_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o art_n magic_a ever_o come_v so_o nigh_o the_o pole_n to_o measure_v with_o his_o astrolabe_n those_o cold_a part_n together_o with_o the_o four_o flood_n which_o mercator_n &_o barnardus_n do_v describe_v both_o in_o the_o front_n and_o also_o in_o the_o nether_a end_n of_o their_o map_n unless_o he_o have_v some_o cold_a devil_n out_o of_o the_o middle_a region_n of_o the_o air_n to_o be_v his_o guide_n and_o therefore_o i_o take_v they_o in_o my_o opinion_n to_o be_v mere_a fable_n true_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v discover_v those_o part_n i_o think_v that_o the_o people_n of_o finmarke_n &_o of_o wardhouse_n or_o such_o like_a people_n border_v upon_o the_o north_n sea_n shall_v best_o do_v it_o have_v body_n use_v to_o extreme_a cold_n but_o then_o be_v breed_v in_o so_o gross_a a_o air_n their_o wit_n perhaps_o be_v too_o gross_a for_o such_o a_o purpose_n i_o remember_v that_o william_n boorne_v in_o his_o book_n call_v the_o regiment_n of_o the_o
