ad. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES 



as we had, and they did eate and drinke of all things, 

 as well as we our selves. Afterwards we bought all 

 their teeth, which were in number 14. and of those 14. 

 there were 10. small: afterwards they departed, making 

 us signes that the next day we should come to their 

 Townes. 



The 26. day because we would not trifle long at this 

 place I required the Master to goe unto one of the 

 townes, and to take two of our marchants with him, & 

 I my selfe went to the other, and tooke one with me, 

 because these two townes stand three miles asunder. 

 To these places we caried somewhat of every kinde of

 nine teeth, which were but small, and at the other towne 

 where I was, I had eleven, which were also not bigge,

 and to the Eastward of that another smaller red cliffe, 

 and right above that into the land a round hummoke 

 and greene, which we tooke to be trees. We ranne in 

 these 24. houres, not above foure leagues. 



The 29. day comming neere to the shoare, we per-
