 I did see in Peru two stones fashioned vpon pinones of 

 Castille, which made vs to wonder much, for that in all 

 Peru we had not seene any pines or pinones of Castille, if 

 they were not brought from Spaine, which seemes to me 

 very extraordinary. This little may suffice touching the 

 Bezoar stone. They bring other phisicall stones from the 

 Indies, as the stone of Hyjada, the bloud stone, the 

 stones of milke, and of the mother. 1 Those which they call 

 Cornerinas, for the heart, whereof there is no neede to 

 speake, having nothing common with the subiect of beastes, 

 whereof we have entreated ; which gives vs to vnderstand 

 how the great Master and Author of all hath imparted his 

 benefites and wonderfull secrets to all partes of the world ; 

 for the which he is to be glorified for ever. Amen.
