This is apparently a translation of the Dutch edition of 1720, with more or less abridg- 

 ment, especially the omission of the rhymed passages of the original, and the statistical lists 

 of the Greenland Whale-fishery, with the addition of the Account, of the Codfish-fishery of 

 later editions. The copy handled, although apparently in the original binding, lacks all the 

 maps and plates except the frontispiece. [254.]
