A.D. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES 



1584. 



Being by the point or hooke of Cabite, then wee kept 

 but an hundred paces from it, running Southwest, south- 

 southwest, and South, untill we discovered the whole 

 [III. 445.] mouth or entrie of the Bay, where we might anker at 

 foure fathom about two hundred cubites from the lande, 

 and then the towne of Manilla was two leagues North- 

 ward from us. 



Chap. 2. 



The course and voyage of the aforesayd Francisco Gualle 

 out of the haven or roade of Manilla, to the haven 

 of Macao in China, with all the courses and situations 

 of the places. 



SAyling out of the haven of Cabite, lying in the Bay 

 of Manilla, wee helde our course Westwarde for the 

 space of eighteene leagues, to the point called El Cabo 

 de Samballes : and when wee were eight leagues in our 

 way, wee left the two Hands Maribillas on the South 

 side, and sailed about a league from them : the point 

 of Samballes aforesayde lyeth under foureteene degrees, 

 and f . being low land, at the end of the same coast 

 of Lu^on, on the West side. 



From the hooke or point aforesayde, wee ranne North, 

 and North and by West, for the space of five and twentie 

 leagues (about a league from the coast of Lu^on) to the 

 point called Cabo de Bullinao : all this coast and Cape 

 is high and hilly ground, which Cape lyeth under six- 

 teene degrees and f . From this Cape de Bullinao we 

 helde our course North, and North and by East, for 

 45. leagues to the point called El Cabo de Bojador, 

 which is the furthest lande Northwarde from the Hand 

 Lu9on lying under 19. degrees. 



The Cape de Bullinao being past the lande maketh 

 a great creeke or bough, and from this creeke the coast 

 runneth North to the point of Bojador, being a land full 

 of cliffes and rockes that reach into the Sea, and the land 

 of the hooke or point is high and hilly ground. 



From the point of Bojador, wee helde our course
