america_n on_o the_o other_o if_o i_o be_v question_v for_o take_v this_o liberty_n i_o shall_v think_v it_o enough_o to_o say_v that_o i_o want_v a_o general_a name_n for_o this_o whole_a ocean_n and_o i_o can_v not_o find_v one_o more_o proper_a and_o yet_o even_o as_o to_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o thing_n if_o the_o discovery_n of_o a_o sea_n to_o the_o south_n of_o the_o isthmus_n of_o darien_n or_o the_o mexican_n coast_n be_v ground_n sufficient_a for_o the_o extend_v the_o name_n of_o south_n sea_n to_o all_o that_o large_a ocean_n of_o the_o world_n though_o it_o lie_v west_n rather_o of_o the_o whole_a continent_n of_o america_n much_o more_o may_v i_o be_v allow_v a_o less_o considerable_a enlargement_n of_o the_o name_n of_o atlantic_a sea_n which_o other_o have_v long_o since_o extend_v to_o so_o great_a a_o part_n of_o this_o ocean_n from_o its_o original_a narrow_a confine_n the_o neighbourhood_n of_o mount_n atlas_n and_o the_o coast_n of_o mauritania_n i_o know_v that_o so_o much_o of_o this_o ocean_n as_o lie_v south_n of_o the_o r._n niger_n go_v usual_o by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o aethiopic_a sea_n yet_o i_o can_v learn_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n for_o it_o for_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o ancient_n call_v all_o the_o south_n part_n of_o africa_n to_o each_o sea_n aethiopia_n yet_o even_o upon_o this_o bottom_n the_o name_n of_o aethiopic_a sea_n shall_v have_v be_v leave_v common_a to_o the_o ocean_n on_o each_o side_n the_o cape_n of_o good_a hope_n but_o if_o the_o name_n must_v be_v appropriate_v why_o to_o this_o on_o the_o west_n of_o africa_n why_o not_o rather_o to_o that_o on_o its_o e._n coast_n which_o lie_v near_o the_o inward_a or_o more_o proper_a aethiopia_n now_o the_o abissine_a empire_n and_o consequent_o may_v better_v be_v call_v the_o aethiopic_a sea_n according_o i_o have_v venture_v to_o call_v it_o so_o vol._n i._o page_n 289_o make_v it_o there_o the_o same_o as_o the_o indian_a which_o i_o also_o make_v to_o be_v all_o the_o ocean_n from_o the_o east_n coast_n of_o africa_n to_o the_o remote_a of_o the_o e._n india_n island_n new_a holland_n and_o new_a guinea_n though_o this_o name_n also_o of_o indian_a sea_n have_v be_v understand_v usual_o of_o narrow_a bound_n but_o be_v that_o as_o it_o will_v i_o be_v for_o use_v comprehensive_a name_n and_o therefore_o these_o three_o name_n of_o atlantic_a indian_a and_o south_n sea_n or_o ocean_n serve_v i_o for_o the_o whole_a ambit_fw-la of_o the_o torrid_a zone_n and_o what_o else_o i_o have_v occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o to_o these_o three_o part_n be_v add_v a_o general_n index_n of_o both_o volume_n the_o first_o volume_n shall_v not_o have_v be_v publish_v without_o one_o but_o that_o it_o be_v reserve_v to_o

afford_v i_o matter_n to_o do_v of_o the_o general_n trade-wind_n a_o view_n of_o the_o general_n &_o coast_v trade-wind_n in_o the_o great_a south_n ocean_n these_o general_a trade-wind_n be_v only_o in_o the_o atlantic_a ocean_n which_o part_v africa_n from_o america_n in_o the_o east_n indian_a ocean_n and_o in_o the_o great_a south-sea_n in_o all_o these_o sea_n except_o just_a under_o or_o near_o the_o line_n they_o constant_o blow_v without_o intermission_n as_o well_o to_o the_o south_n as_o to_o the_o north_n of_o the_o equator_fw-la but_o not_o with_o equal_a force_n at_o all_o time_n nor_o in_o all_o latitude_n neither_o do_v these_o constant_a trade-wind_n usual_o blow_v near_o the_o shore_n but_o only_o in_o the_o ocean_n at_o least_o 30_o or_o 40_o league_n off_o at_o sea_n clear_a from_o any_o land_n especial_o on_o the_o west_n coast_n or_o side_n of_o any_o continent_n for_o indeed_o on_o the_o east_n side_n the_o easterly_a wind_n be_v the_o true_a trade-wind_n blow_v almost_o home_o to_o the_o shore_n so_o near_o as_o to_o receive_v a_o check_n from_o the_o land-wind_n and_o ofttimes_o to_o admit_v of_o the_o sea-breez_a by_o which_o it_o be_v draw_v from_o its_o course_n frequent_o 4_o or_o 5_o point_n of_o the_o compass_n but_o of_o the_o sea-breez_a i_o shall_v speak_v in_o its_o place_n in_o some_o place_n and_o particular_o the_o south_n sea_n in_o south_n lat._n the_o true_a eastern_a trade_n be_v not_o find_v to_o blow_v within_o 150_o or_o near_o 200_o league_n of_o the_o coast_n but_o in_o north_n lat._n in_o those_o sea_n it_o come_v within_o 30_o or_o 40_o league_n distance_n of_o the_o shore_n and_o this_o i_o shall_v give_v as_o a_o general_a rule_n that_o in_o north_n lat._n these_o wind_n be_v common_o at_o e._n n._n e._n in_o south_n lat._n at_o e._n s._n e._n when_o we_o go_v from_o england_n and_o be_v bind_v to_o the_o east_n or_o west_n indies_n or_o to_o guinea_n we_o common_o find_v these_o wind_n in_o the_o lat._n of_o 30_o d._n sometime_o soon_o as_o in_o the_o latitude_n of_o 32_o or_o 35._o and_o it_o may_v so_o happen_v that_o we_o may_v meet_v with_o a_o easterly_a wind_n in_o 40_o d._n or_o go_v out_o of_o our_o own_o channel_n with_o a_o north_n east_n wind_n which_o sometime_o also_o fail_v we_o not_o till_o we_o come_v into_o a_o true_a trade-wind_n but_o this_o be_v only_o accidental_a therefore_o be_v not_o the_o wind_n that_o i_o speak_v of_o but_o between_o 32_o and_o 28_o i_o do_v never_o know_v nor_o hear_v that_o the_o true_a trade-wind_n fail_v if_o in_o come_v from_o england_n we_o have_v a_o north_n easterly_a wind_n that_o bring_v we_o hither_o i._n e._n into_o the_o true_a trade-wind_n it_o sometime_o stay_v at_o north_n east_n especial_o if_o we_o keep_v near_o the_o african_a shore_n as_o guinea_n ship_n do_v till_o we_o be_v near_o the_o tropic_a of_o cancer_n and_o then_o come_v to_o the_o e._n n._n e._n where_o it_o settle_v but_o common_o it_o settle_v there_o in_o 28_o d._n if_o we_o be_v so_o far_o off_o shore_n as_o to_o receive_v the_o true_a trade_n when_o the_o wind_n be_v thus_o settle_a we_o have_v common_o fair_a wether_n and_o a_o

to_o my_o sorrow_n in_o my_o return_n from_o bantam_n in_o the_o year_n 1671._o we_o have_v cloudy_a wether_n and_o brisk_a wind_n while_o we_o be_v cross_v the_o east_n indian_a ocean_n and_o have_v
