having It's Fountains forty Miles to the Southward of their 

 Influx into the SheU'iff^ the other, called the Wed el Ahdt, as 

 many to the S.W. After each of them hath traverfed, for the 

 Space of fix Leagues, a rich le\^el Country, They unite near 

 the Tomb of JllelU Ben Omar, a Ma-rah-hutt of great Repu- 

 tation. 



The Sbelliff, when It had drunk up thefe Rivers, together The sheiuff 

 with the Warilfa, the Tagia, the Sufellim^ and other leiTeriiis^i^Jcher- 

 Streams, was, when I faw It in Autumn, about the Bignefs of 

 the I/is united with the Cherwell. Ebn Said ' as quoted by Al?ul- 

 feda, afcribeth to the Sbelliff the fame Property the Ni/e hath, 

 of increafing Its Stream in the Summer Seafon•, but, I am per- 

 fwaded, not the leaft Occafion could have been ever given for 

 any Sufpicion or Appearance of this Kind. 



A little to the N. W. of the Sbelliff'is the Cape Ivy of our Cape ivf, er 

 modern Sea Charts, The [^J'lhhel [ <^^>-^ i Difs'] Mountain of Ree- 

 dy-Grafs as the Inhabitants call It: Four Miles farther, to the 

 E. N. E. is the larse fandy Bay of Teddert, where Veffels ride Jeddert, or 



Cartili '

 Edri/i and the Cartili of the Itinerary fall in with this Situation. 



Ham-meefe, where there is a Creek and Rivulet, is a fmall Hammeefe. 

 Mart for Corn, two Leagues from Teddert to the E.N.E. The 

 European Merchants are permitted to carry on the like Com- 

 merce at Magrowa, and The [ i^<^-?^ ■S-v Rummel-abead~\ white Migrov^i•. 

 fandy Bay a little farther to the Eailward. abeTd?'^ 



Three Leagues to the E.N.E. of Ham-meefe, at a fmall Di, zoureiHa- 

 ftance from the Continent, is the Zour el Hamamjfola de Colum-^^mifllJ'.' 

 ha, or The Tigeon IjJand. It is a rocky Place, about a Quar- 

 ter of a Mile in Circuit, and receiveth It's Name from the 

 Number of [ Ha-mam ,-U2^ ] Wild-Tigeons, that build in the 

 Cliftsoflt. 



Three Leagues farther are Callat Shimmah {the Light Houfel Caiiat shim- 

 and Mers' Agoleite, (the Merfalach of the modern Sea Charts) Mers-^Ago- 

 two fmall Creeks, with a Promontory between Them. They ""^^" 

 are often vifited by the coafting Vefl^ls, and lye, near the half
