before_o i_o pass_v any_o further_a to_o other_o thing_n i_o will_v declare_v the_o manner_n how_o the_o indian_n kindle_v fire_n fire_n only_o with_o wood_n and_o without_o fire_n the_o manner_n whereof_o be_v this_o they_o take_v a_o piece_n of_o wood_n of_o two_o span_n in_o length_n as_o biggea_n the_o least_o finger_n of_o a_o man_n hand_n or_o as_o a_o arrow_n well_o pullish_v and_o of_o a_o strong_a kind_n of_o wood_n which_o they_o keep_v only_o for_o this_o purpose_n and_o where_o they_o intend_v to_o kindle_v any_o fire_n they_o take_v two_o other_o piece_n of_o wood_n of_o the_o dry_a and_o light_a that_o they_o can_v find_v and_o bind_v they_o fast_o together_o one_o with_o another_o as_o close_o as_o two_o finger_n join_v in_o the_o midst_n or_o between_o these_o they_o put_v the_o point_n of_o the_o first_o little_a staff_n make_v of_o hard_a and_o strong_a wood_n which_o they_o hold_v in_o their_o hand_n by_o the_o top_n thereof_o and_o turn_v or_o rub_v it_o round_o about_o continual_o in_o one_o place_n between_o the_o two_o piece_n of_o wood_n which_o lie_v bind_v together_o upon_o the_o earth_n which_o by_o that_o uncessant_a rub_n and_o chase_v be_v in_o short_a space_n kindle_v and_o take_v fire_n night_n i_o have_v also_o think_v good_a here_o to_o speak_v somewhat_o of_o such_o thing_n as_o come_v to_o my_o remembrance_n of_o certain_a tree_n which_o be_v find_v in_o this_o land_n and_o sometime_o also_o the_o like_a have_v be_v see_v in_o spain_n these_o be_v certain_a putrify_a trunk_n which_o have_v l●en_v so_o long_o rot_v on_o the_o earth_n that_o they_o be_v very_o white_a and_o shine_v in_o the_o night_n like_o burn_a firebrand_n and_o when_o the_o spaniard_n find_v any_o of_o this_o wood_n and_o intend_v privy_o in_o the_o night_n to_o make_v war_n and_o invade_v any_o province_n when_o case_n so_o require_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v necessary_a to_o go_v in_o the_o night_n in_o such_o place_n where_o they_o know_v not_o the_o way_n the_o foremost_a christian_a man_n which_o guide_v the_o way_n associate_n with_o a_o indian_a to_o direct_v he_o therein_o take_v a_o little_a star_n of_o the_o say_a wood_n which_o he_o put_v in_o his_o cap_n hang_v behind_o on_o his_o shoulder_n by_o the_o light_n whereof_o he_o that_o follow_v next_o to_o he_o direct_v his_o journey_n who_o also_o in_o like_a manner_n bear_v another_o star_n behind_o he_o by_o the_o shine_a whereof_o the_o three_o follow_v the_o same_o way_n and_o in_o like_a manner_n do_v all_o the_o rest_n so_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v none_o be_v lose_v or_o straggle_v out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o this_o light_n be_v not_o see_v very_o far_o it_o be_v the_o better_a policy_n for_o the_o christian_n because_o they_o be_v not_o thereby_o disclose_v before_o they_o invade_v their_o enemy_n furthermore_o as_o touch_v the_o nature_n of_o tree_n one_o particular_a thing_n seem_v worthy_a to_o be_v note_v whereof_o pliny_n make_v mention_n in_o his_o natural_a history_n pliny_n where_o he_o say_v that_o there_o be_v certain_a tree_n which_o continue_v ever_o green_a and_o never_o loose_v their_o leaf_n as_o the_o bay-tree_n the_o cedar_n the_o orange-tree_n and_o the_o olive-tree_n with_o such_o other_o of_o the_o which_o in_o altogether_o he_o name_v not_o past_o five_o or_o six_o to_o this_o purpose_n i_o say_v that_o in_o the_o land_n of_o these_o indies_n and_o also_o in_o the_o firm_a land_n green_a it_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o much_o difficulty_n to_o find_v two_o tree_n that_o lose_v or_o cast_v
