Germans Cape to the said Ilands is about xviij leagues a half at the ende of which ther is a goodly plot of grounde full of huge highe trées albeit the rest of the coast be compassed about w t sandes w tout any signe or shew of harboroughs til we came to Thiennots Cape which tendeth Northwest about vij leagues from y e forsaid Ilāds which Thiennots Cape we noted in our former voyage therfore we failed on all that night Weast Northwest til it was day then the winde turned again frō vs wherefore we wente to séeke a Hauen wherin we might harbor our ships by good hap found one fit for our purpose about vij leagues a half beyond Thiennots Cape and that we named S. Nicholas Hauen it lyeth amidst foure Ilandes that stretcheth into the sea Vpon the next we for a token set vp a woodden crosse But note by the way that crosse must be turned Northeast and then bending toward it leaue it on the left hand and you shall finde thrée fadome water and within the Hauen but two Also you are to take héede of two shelues that leane outwarde halfe a league All this coaste is full of quicke sandes and very daungerous albeit in sighte manye good Hauens séeme to be there yet is there nought else but shelues and sandes We staide and rested our selues in the sayde Hauen vntill the seauenth of August being Sundaye on whiche daye we hoysed sayle and came towarde lande one the neather side towarde Rabasts Cape distant from the sayd Hauen about twentie leagues North Northeast and South Southweast but the nexte daye there rose a stormie and a contrarie winde and therefore we coulde finde no Hauen there towarde the South Thence we wente coasting along toward the North beyonde the aboue-sayde Hauen aboute tenne leagues where we founde a goodly greate gulfe full of Ilandes passages and entraunces towarde what winde soeuer you please to bend for the knowledge of this gulfe there is a greate Ilande that is a Cape of the maine lande stretching somewhat further foorth than the others and aboute two leagues wythin the lande there is an Hill fashioned as it were an heape of corne We named the sayde Gulfe Saint Laurence hys Baie The twelfth of the sayde month we went from the sayd S. Laurence hys Bay or Gulfe sayling Westwarde and came to finde a Cape of maine lande on the Northside of the Baye that runneth from the saide Sainte Laurence his Baie about fiue and twentie leagues West and by South And of the two wilde men whiche we toke in our former voyage it was tolde vs that this was of the Band● towarde the South and that there was an Ilande on the Southerlye parte of whiche is the waye to goe to Honguedo where the yeare before we hadde taken them in Canada and that two dayes iourney from the sayde Cape an Ilande began the Kingdome of Siguenay in the land● Northwarde extending towarde Canada and aboute thrée leagues athwart the saide Cape there is aboue fiftie faddome déepe Moreouer I beléeue that there was neuer so many Whale● séene as we sawe that day about the Cape The next daye after our Ladie day in August being the fiftéenth of the month hauing past those straightes where we had notice of certaine landes that we left toward the South whiche landes are full of very high hilles and therfore we named them The Ilands of the Assumption and one Cape of the sayd high countryes lyeth East north-easte and Weste south-west the distaunce betwéene which is about fiue twentie leagues The Countryes lying North maye playnely be perceyued to be higher thā the Southerly more than thirtie leagues We trended y e saide landes about towarde the South frō the said day vntyl Twesday noone following the winde being in the West and therfore we bended toward the North purposing to go and sée the land that we before had spyed Being arriued there wée founde the sayd Ilands as it were ioyned togither and lowe toward the Sea And the Northerly mountaines that are vpon the saide lowe Ilandes stretching Easte Weste and by Southe Our men tolde vs that there was the beginning of Saguenay and that it was land inhabited and that thēce commeth the redde Copper of them named CAIGNETDAZE There is betwéen the Southerly Ilands and the Northerly about 30. leagues distance and more thā 100. faddome depth The saide men did moreouer certifye vnto vs that there was the way and beginning of the gret riuer of Hochelaga a ready way to Canada which riuer the further it went the narower it came euen vntil to Canada and that then there was freshe water which went so farre vpwards that they hadde neuer hearde of any man had gone to the heade of it and that there is no other passage but with small boates Our Captayne hearing their talke and how they did affirm no other passage to be there woulde not at that time procéede any further tyll he had séene and noted the other Ilandes coast towarde the North which he had ommitted to sée after Saint Larance his gulfe bycause he would exquisitly know if in the Ilandes toward the South any passage had bin discouered ¶ How our Captain caused the shippes to retourne backe again only to know if in Saint Laurence gulfe there were any passage towarde the North. CHAP. 2. VPon the 18. of August being Wednesday our Captain● caused his shippes to winde backe and bend toward the other shore so that we trended the sayd Northerly cost whiche runneth South-east North-west being fashioned like vnto halfe a bowe and is a very high land but yet not so high as that on the Southerly partes The Thursday following we came to seuen very high Ilandes whiche we named The round Ilands These Ilandes are distant from the others about fourtie leagues and stretche out into the Sea aboute thrée or foure leagues Aboute these there are goodly lowe groundes to be séene full of goodlye trées whiche we the Fryday following with our boates compassed aboute Ouerthwart these Ilandes there are diuerse sandie shelues more than two leagues into the sea very daungerous whiche at a a lowe water remaine almost dry At the furthest boundes of these lowe Ilands that containe about tenne leagues ther is a riuer of fresh water that with such swiftnesse runneth into the sea that for the space of one league within it the water is as freshe as anye fountaine water We with our boates entred into the saide riuer at the entraunce of whiche we foūd about one fadome water There are in this riuer many fishes shaped like horsses which as our wilde men told vs al the daye long lye in the water and the night on lande of which we sawe therein a great number The next day being the one and twentith of the month by breake of day we hoysed sayle and sayled so long about the sayde coaste that wée had sight of the Northerly partes of it

and other thynges after theyr fashion These Women béeing come to our Shippes our Captayne dyd very friendly entertayne them Then Donnacona prayde our Captayne to tel those women that he should come agayne after ten or twelue monethes bring Donnacona to Canada agayne with him that hée did only to appeale them which our Captayne did wherefore the Women as well by words as signes séeme to be very glad giuing our Captaine thankes and tolde him if he came againe and brought Donnacona with him they would giue him many things in signe whereof eache one gaue our Captayne a chayne of Esurgny and then passed to the other side of the Riuer agayne where stoode all the people of Stadagona who taking all leaue of their Lord wente home agayne On Saturday following béeing the sixth of the moneth we departed out of the sayd Porte and came to harborough a little beneath the Ilande of Orleans aboute twelue leagues from the Porte of the Holy Crosse and vppon Sunday we came to the Iland of Filberdes where we stayde vntill the sixtéenth of that Moneth till the fiercenesse of the waters were past which at that time ranne too swifte a course and were too dangerous to come downe alongst the Riuer and therefore we stayde till fayre weather came In the meane while many of Donnaconas Subiects came from the Riuer of Saguenay to him but béeing by Domagaia aduertised that their Lorde was taken to be caryed into France they were all amazed yet for all that they would not leaue to come to oure Shippes to speake to Donnacona who tolde them that after twelue monethes he shoulde come agayne and that he shoulde be very well vsed with the Captayne Gentlemen and Mariners Which when they hearde they greately thanked oure Captayne and gaue their Lorde thrée bundles of Beauers and Sea Woolues Skinnes with a greate knife of redde Copper that commeth from Saguenay and manye other thyngs They gaue also to our Captayne a Chayne of Esurgny for whyche oure Captayne gaue them tenne or twelue Hatchettes and they gaue hym hartie thankes and were very well contented The nexte daye béeing the sixtéenth of May wée hoysed Sayle and came from the sayde Iland of Filburdes to another aboute fiftéene leagues from it which is aboute fiue leagues in length and there to the ende we might take some rest the night following we staide that day in hope the next day we might passe and auoyde the dangers of the riuer of Saguenay which are great That euening we went a land and found great store of Hares of which we toke a great many and therefore we called it The Ilande of Hares in the night there arose a contrarie winde with suche stormes and tempest that we were constrayned to bende to the Iland of Filburdes againe from whence we were come bycause there was none other passage among the said Ilāds and there we stayde till the one and twentie of that moneth that faire weather and good winde came again and then we sayled again and that so prosperously that we passed to Honguedo which passage vntil that time had not bene discouered we caused our ships to course athwart Pratos Cape which is the beginning of the Port of Cator and bicause the wind was good and conuenient we sayled all day and all night without staying and the next day we came to the middle of Brions Ilande which we were not minded to do to the end we might shorten our way These two Ilands lie Northwest Southeast and are about fiftie leagues one from another The said Iland is in latitude 47. degrées and a halfe Vpon Thursday being the 26. of the moneth and the feast of the Ascention of our Lord we coasted ouer to go to a land and shallow of low sands which are about eight leagues Sowthwest frō Brions Iland on which are large Champaines full of trées towns and also an enclosed sea of which neyther could we sée or perceiue any gap or any way to enter therein On Friday following being the 27. of the moneth bycause the winde did change on the cost we came to Brions Iland againe where we stayed till the beginning of Iune and toward the Southeast of this Iland we sawe a land séeming vnto vs as an Ilande we coasted it about two leagues and a halfe and by y e way we had notice of thrée other high Ilands lying toward the Sandes after we had known these things we retourned to the Cape of the saide land whiche doeth diuide it selfe into two or thrée very high Capes the waters ther are very déep the floud of the Sea runneth so swift that it cannot possibly be swifter That day we came to S.

Paules Cape it is at 47. degrées and a quarter The Sonday followyng beyng the fourth of Iune and Whitsonday we hadde notice of the coaste lying East Southeast distant from the new found land aboute 22. leagues and bycause the wind was against vs we went to a Hauen which we named S. Spiritus Porte where wée stayed till Tuisdaye that we departed thence sayling along that coaste vntill wée came to S. Peters Ilandes We found along the saide coaste many very dangerous Ilands and Shelues whych lye all in the waye East southeast and Weast Northweast about 23. leagues into the Sea Whilest we were in the said S. Peters Ilands we met with many ships of France and of Britaine we stayed there from S. Barnabas day being the 11. of the moneth vntil the 16. that we departed thence and came to cape of Ras and entred into a Porte called Rogaoso where we toke in freshwater and wood to passe the sea there we lefte one of our boates Then vpon Monday beyng the 19. of Iune we went from that Porte and wyth suche good and prosperous weather we sailed along the Sea in such sorte that vpon the 6. of Iune 1536. we came to the Porte of S.
