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 be_v annex_v to_o this_o that_o the_o reader_n may_v not_o have_v the_o trouble_n of_o turn_v over_o two_o alphabet_n thus_o what_o i_o design_v as_o a_o appendix_n to_o the_o former_a volume_n be_v

only_o endeavour_v to_o engross_v the_o pepper_n trade_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a enough_o that_o the_o dutch_a may_v sometime_o keep_v a_o guardship_n there_o as_o they_o do_v at_o other_o place_n
