the_o indian_a sea_n the_o other_o that_o of_o china_n and_o i_o have_v observe_v as_o well_o by_o my_o own_o navigation_n as_o by_o the_o relation_n of_o other_o that_o the_o sea_n be_v never_o

the_o which_o be_v many_o and_o great_a distant_a from_o peru_n about_o eight_o hundred_o league_n and_o for_o that_o we_o find_v by_o observation_n that_o whereas_o there_o be_v many_o and_o great_a
