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

 Influx into the Shellijf\ the other, called the Wed el Ahdt^ as 

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

The Shelliff, when It had drunk up thefe Rivers, together rhc shdiiff 

 with the Wariffa, the Tagia, the SufeUim^ and other lelTer liisiT^/chVr- 

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

 the Ifis united with the Cherwell. Ehn Said ' as quoted by Abul- 

 feda, afcribeth to the Shelliff the fame Property the Nile hath, 

 of increafing It's 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 Sheiriff is the Cape hy of our Cape ivy, or 

 modern Sea Charts, The YJihhel C ^j^>-^ J 2)i/}] Mountain ofRee- ' 

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

 E. N. E. is the large fandy Bay of Teddert, where Veflels ride Teddert, vr

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

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