Tacitus calleth Antona For euen to that place there gothe a great arme of the sea which passeth through the land westward on the right hand leaueth Cornewall and on the left wales ▪ whiche Topographye or description althoughe it bee newe yet I thoughte good to solowe Therfore Wales is extended from the town of Chepstoll where it beginneth almost by a straight line a lttle aboue Shrowesburye euen to

writynges report where partely through refuge of the mountains and partly of the woddes and marshes they remained in safetie whiche part● they enioye euen to this day That land afterwardes the englyshmen dyd call wales and the Britains the inhabitantes of the same walshmen for amonges the Germains walsman signifieth a stranger an alien an outborn or strange man that is suche a one as hathe a contrary language from theirs for wall in their tong ▪ is called a stranger borne as an Italian or Frencheman whiche differ in speche from the Germaine Man signifieth Homo whiche is a man in englishe Therfore Englishemen a people of Germanye after they had wonne Britayne called the Britains whiche escaped after the destruction of their countreye after their countrey maner walshemen because they had an other tongue or speche besides theirs and the land which they inhabited wales which name afterwardes bothe to the people and countrey dyd remayne By this meanes the Britaines with their kyngdome lost their name But they which affirm that name to bee deriued of their Kynge or quene without doubt be deceyued The coūtrey soyle towardes the sea coast and in other places in the valleys and playnes is moste fertile whiche yeldeth both to man beaste great plentie of fruite and grasse but in other places for the most part it is bareyn and lesse fruitfull because it lacketh tillage for which cause husbandmen doo lyue hardely eatynge Oten cakes and drinkyng mylk myxt with water and sowre whay Ther be many townes and strong casteis and .iiii. bishoprikes if the bishoprike of Hereforde be counted in Englād as the late writers declat● The first bishoprike is Meneue so called of Meneua whiche at this day they call Sainct Dauids a Citie very ancient situated vppon the sea coast and boundeth westward towarde Irelande An other is Landaffe the third Bangor and the fourth Saint Asaph All which be vnder Tharchebishop of Cantorbury The walshemen haue a language from thenglishemen whiche as they saye that fetche their Petigree frome the Troianes doothe partely sound of the Troian antiquitie and partelye of the Greeke But howe so euer it is the walshemen do not pronounce their speache so pleasauntly and gentilly as thenglyshemen doo because they speake more in the throte and contrarywyse thenglishemen rightly folowyng the Latines doo expresse their voyce somwhat within the lyps which to the hearers semeth pleasant sweete And thus much of wales the third part of Britain Now foloweth the fourth and laste part of Britayne named Cornewall This part beginneth on that syde which standeth towarde Spayne westward Toward the East it is of bredth .iiii. score and ten miles extending a little beyonde saint Germains whiche is a very famous village situated on the ryghte hand vppon the sea coaste where the greatest breadth of that countrey is but .xx. myles for this parcell of lande on the right hand is cōpassed with the coast of the mayn sea and on the left hand with that arme of the sea which as before is declared parteth the land and runneth vp to Chepstoll where the countrey is in fourme of a Horne For at the fyrst it is narowe and then groweth broader a little beyonde the said towne of saint Germayne Eastward it bordreth vpon England west south North the mayn sea is round about it It is a very bareyn soyle yeldynge fruite more through trauaile of the tyllers and husbandmen then through the goodnesse of the grounde but there is greate plentie of leade and tynne in the mynyng and diggyng wherof doth specially consyst the liuynge and sustentation of the inhabitantes In this onely partt of Britayn euen to this day continueth the nation of the Britains which in y e beginnyng brought out of Gallia occupied and in habited that Iland if credite may be geuen to them whiche reporte the first inhabitantes of Britayn to come out of the Cities of Armerica The argumēt profe wherof is because the Cornishemen doo speake that language which the Britains vse now in France whō the Britons doo call Britonantes This thing to be more true an old ancient Chronicle doth declare wherin I foūd written not Cornubia but Cornugallia compounded of Cornu a horne the forme wherof that countrey hath and of Gallia oute of which countrey thinhabitants came first the maner of which name is not to be mislyked Their tongue is farr dissonant from english but is muche lyke to the walshe tongue because they haue many words cōmune to both tonges yet this difference there is betweene them when a Walshman speaketh the Cornysheman rather vnderstandeth many wordes spoken by the Walshman then the whole tale he telleth Whereby it is manyfeste that those thre people do vnderstand one an other in lyke maner as the Southerne Scots doo perceiue and vnderstand the Northern But it is a thyng very rare and meruailous that in one Iland there should be such varietie of speches Cornewall or Cornugall is in the Diocesse of Excetour whiche was ones worthy to be counted the fourth part of the Ilād as wel for the contrarietie of language as for the first inhabitants thereof as is beforesaid Afterwardes the Normains whiche constituted a kyngdom of all those thre partes reckened Cornewall to be one of the counties or shires of the countrey Thus much of the particular description of Britayne that the whole body of the realme by the membres may be the better knowen to some peraduenture that neuer heard the same before The forme of the Ilande is triquetra or thre cornered hauyng thre corners or thre sides Two wherof
