have_v white_a wolf_n too_o but_o not_o so_o frequent_a they_o have_v a_o water_n rat_n who_o skin_n be_v of_o a_o pleasant_a smell_n and_o very_o proper_a to_o lay_v among_o clothes_n they_o have_v hemp_n and_o flax_n in_o that_o abundance_n in_o moscovie_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o be_v export_v from_o archangel_n linen_n among_o they_o be_v very_o cheap_a it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o i_o mention_v the_o leather_n of_o russia_n be_v a_o thing_n so_o well_o know_v already_o in_o europe_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o english_a and_o hollander_n who_o transport_v it_o daily_o from_o archangel_n cloth_n be_v the_o only_a thing_n that_o be_v defective_a to_o the_o muscovite_n what_o they_o make_v there_o be_v course_n and_o thick_a and_o for_o the_o use_n only_o of_o the_o peasant_n which_o give_v occasion_n to_o the_o english_a and_o dutch_a to_o drive_v a_o great_a trade_n there_o every_o year_n with_o that_o commodity_n as_o for_o travail_v they_o have_v great_a advantage_n especial_o in_o the_o winter_n by_o their_o sledge_n for_o the_o country_n be_v flat_a and_o exceed_o cold_a and_o the_o ground_n at_o that_o time_n cover_v constant_o with_o snow_n their_o sledge_n which_o be_v draw_v with_o horse_n glide_v easy_o away_o upon_o the_o surface_n of_o it_o and_o pass_v with_o incredible_a swiftness_n these_o sledge_n be_v make_v of_o the_o bark_n of_o the_o lindentree_n about_o the_o length_n of_o a_o man_n in_o which_o one_o lie_v along_o they_o line_n they_o common_o with_o some_o thick_a feel_a to_o make_v they_o warm_v and_o because_o the_o top_n be_v open_a they_o cover_v and_o wrap_v themselves_o up_o in_o good_a fur_n as_o well_o as_o they_o can_v they_o travail_n under_o the_o conduct_n of_o a_o carter_n who_o sit_v on_o one_o side_n and_o sometime_o by_o fit_n will_v endeavour_v to_o warm_v himself_o with_o run_v by_o but_o most_o common_o with_o good_a full_a draught_n of_o strong_a water_n which_o be_v his_o principal_a preservative_n in_o his_o travel_n and_o if_o at_o any_o time_n he_o happen_v to_o overturn_v upon_o any_o bank_n or_o declivity_n the_o sledge_n be_v build_v low_o the_o fall_n be_v the_o

more_o dangerous_a otherwise_o they_o slide_v along_o upon_o the_o snow_n like_o the_o rest_n this_o manner_n of_o travail_v in_o sledge_n be_v not_o only_o convenient_a seeing_z one_o may_v in_o three_o day_n time_n travail_v in_o they_o from_o vologda_n to_o moscow_n which_o be_v at_o least_o a_o hundred_o league_n distance_n but_o pleasant_a also_o in_o so_o plain_a a_o country_n and_o provide_v a_o man_n be_v well_o cover_v he_o may_v sleep_v with_o ease_n his_o motion_n be_v light_a and_o insensible_a and_o favour_n rather_o than_o disturb_v one_o repose_n beside_o the_o advantage_n of_o travail_v by_o night_n as_o well_o as_o by_o day_n according_a to_o the_o importance_n of_o occasion_n in_o summer_n they_o have_v two_o way_n of_o travail_v by_o land_n and_o by_o water_n whereas_o in_o winter_n they_o travail_n but_o only_o by_o land_n on_o the_o first_o one_o may_v travail_v on_o horseback_n by_o coach_n or_o by_o wagon_n the_o way_n be_v very_o broad_a beautiful_a and_o general_o easy_a for_o travail_n all_o moscovie_n through_o in_o the_o other_o way_n of_o travail_v they_o make_v use_v of_o certain_a little_a boat_n make_v all_o of_o one_o piece_n of_o the_o trunk_n of_o a_o tree_n make_v hollow_a in_o which_o they_o stand_v right_o up_o and_o row_v over_o lake_n and_o rivers_n so_o these_o boat_n be_v very_a light_n a_o man_n with_o small_a care_n can_v travail_v a_o great_a way_n in_o a_o very_a short_a time_n but_o there_o be_v this_o dangerous_a inconvenience_n in_o they_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o exact_a counterpoise_n observe_v they_o totter_v from_o one_o side_n to_o another_o till_o at_o last_o they_o turn_v quite_o over_o they_o make_v use_v also_o of_o certain_a float_a bridge_n make_v of_o piece_n of_o fir_n join_v and_o tie_v together_o which_o bear_v themselves_o up_o upon_o the_o water_n furthermore_o they_o have_v this_o great_a incommodity_n in_o all_o sort_n of_o travail_v that_o they_o have_v no_o inn_n or_o house_n of_o reception_n to_o retire_v to_o or_o where_o one_o may_v be_v accommodate_v as_o in_o other_o country_n of_o europe_n so_o that_o one_o must_v carry_v both_o his_o bed_n and_o provision_n along_o with_o he_o and_o for_o this_o reason_n the_o merchant_n that_o traffic_n from_o archangel_n to_o moscow_n have_v their_o house_n at_o vologda_n and_o moscow_n and_o be_v well_o know_v and_o accommodate_v it_o be_v a_o great_a convenience_n to_o travail_v with_o they_o another_o great_a incommodity_n in_o the_o summer_n be_v the_o violence_n of_o the_o heat_n and_o the_o importunity_n of_o the_o fly_n buzz_v perpetual_o about_o one_o face_n and_o interrupt_v the_o pleasure_n one_o may_v take_v in_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o forest_n and_o the_o grateful_a confusion_n of_o light_n and_o shadow_n that_o be_v make_v in_o the_o wood_n thus_o far_o we_o have_v represent_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o country_n we_o will_v now_o consider_v the_o genius_n of_o the_o

three_o of_o their_o managery_n and_o manner_n of_o live_v four_o of_o their_o policy_n and_o last_o of_o all_o of_o their_o religion_n the_o moscovite_n or_o russian_n be_v those_o who_o the_o

who_o have_v the_o reputation_n of_o good_a drinker_n above_o all_o other_o their_o shape_n and_o proportion_n be_v much_o the_o same_o with_o the_o german_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n corpulent_a
