the_o north_n cape_n the_o 19_o day_n of_o june_n i_o steer_v away_o north-east_n by_o compass_n which_o be_v not_o so_o much_o by_o the_o true_a course_n because_o of_o the_o variation_n that_o be_v there_o westerly_a and_o the_o 22._o day_n at_o noon_n we_o see_v the_o main_a body_n of_o ice_n be_v in_o the_o lat._n of_o 76_o d._n and_o about_o 60_o league_n to_o the_o eastward_o of_o greenland_n at_o the_o first_o see_v of_o ice_n i_o do_v imagine_v it_o have_v be_v the_o ice_n that_o join_v to_o greenland_n and_o that_o if_o i_o go_v more_o easterly_a there_o may_v be_v a_o free_a sea_n so_o i_o run_v close_o by_o the_o ice_n it_o lie_v away_o east-south-east_n and_o west-north-west_n and_o every_o league_n or_o less_o that_o we_o run_v we_o meet_v with_o a_o cape_n of_o ice_n so_o when_o we_o be_v about_o that_o we_o can_v see_v no_o ice_n to_o the_o northward_o so_o stand_v in_o north-east_n sometime_o two_o glass_n that_o be_v one_o hour_n we_o can_v see_v more_o ice_n a_o head_n and_o then_o we_o be_v force_v to_o go_v out_o the_o same_o way_n we_o come_v in_o and_o thus_o i_o continue_v coast_v the_o ice_n sometime_o with_o great_a hope_n of_o a_o clear_a

join_v to_o it_o so_o here_o the_o opinion_n of_o william_n barrans_n be_v confute_v and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o dutch_a relation_n which_o certain_o be_v all_o forge_a abusive_a pamphlet_n

of_o such_o untruth_n they_o will_v never_o do_v it_o for_o i_o do_v now_o very_o believe_v that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o land_n to_o the_o northward_o of_o the_o lat._n of_o 80_o d._n that_o the_o sea_n that_o be_v there_o be_v all_o freeze_a and_o always_o continue_v so_o for_o i_o that_o can_v get_v no_o far_o than_o 76_o d._n find_v it_o so_o freeze_a without_o intermission_n and_o some_o of_o the_o ice_n that_o we_o see_v that_o be_v on_o the_o main_a body_n of_o it_o have_v be_v convey_v 10_o degree_n more_o southward_o will_v have_v take_v some_o century_n of_o year_n to_o thaw_v it_o for_o the_o loose_a ice_n that_o lie_v about_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o main_a body_n be_v not_o more_o than_o a_o foot_n thick_a in_o some_o piece_n above_o the_o superficies_n of_o the_o water_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o cake_n that_o be_v sink_v be_v more_o than_o 18_o foot_n below_o so_o i_o conclude_v that_o those_o vast_a mountain_n that_o be_v on_o the_o main_a body_n be_v all_o on_o shore_n as_o of_o necessity_n they_o must_v if_o they_o hold_v the_o same_o proportion_n and_o consider_v the_o shallowness_n of_o the_o water_n which_o i_o find_v all_o along_o the_o ice_n which_o in_o the_o midway_n between_o the_o two_o land_n i_o find_v to_o be_v no_o more_o than_o 70_o fathom_n be_v doubtless_o a_o sign_n that_o to_o the_o northward_o be_v land_n and_o that_o the_o main_a
