Mving rim half a German Mik^ out at the other' 
fide of the Mountain, near the Chappel of St. Canti^n- 
X as I have faithfully drawn it in figAL ) in a defert place 
'at ailony Cave A; and beconie the River called by the in- 
habitants y^/^;^^?, thac is the Lake: This River J/ferQ 
marked B, is reafbnably bigg, and having run half a quar-^ 
ter .of a Mile, enters a wide ftoriy Cavern, /, running 
flowly under the hill for the fpace of a good Mufquet- 
ihott; then' conning out again on the other fide,after it has 
run thro a fmall platt my m; it enters a third Cavern or 
Grotto C ; wherein having paffed 50 Paces, one may 
^ky Sifie Viator ^ ne plm ultra^ for it ruiis no longer peacibiy 
as before, but with great noife and roaring falls down a 
very much inclined channel of fl:one,{b that neither I nor 
any elfedurft follow it farther. In June 16']% I went my 
in a; fmall fifher-boat under the Mountain,through the 
Cave /, and entred the Grotto till I came to the afore- 
faid Falls J without any danger or trouble, the paffage 
being wide enough. 
^ It muft be noted^ that the Valley wherein this River 
Jefero runs, is exceeding fteep, but the Plat of Ground 
Wj my is plain and fl:ony, of an Gval Form, aiid is fur- 
rounded with (as it were) a very high RampartX^yC 
fo fteep, that it would be impoffible for a Cat to climb 
but of it, unlels at one place, wliereat a Man may make 
a niift to g ) up and do wn, tho' not without peril of bis 
Life ; the Way being in fome places not above three or 
foiir Inches, and no where abbve fix Inches wide. In tte 
Year 1684 1 went down here in Company with a French 
Gentleman, but the Water being 'jp and we wanting ia 
'Boat, we could net go under the H Jl nor enter the Grotto 
C ;- fo we returned, and \Vtth greit difficulty defcended 
by a fteep and narrow Paflcjge at' D, and came to a Cave 
bigger than any Ciurch,tarou^di which the River "Jejero 
runs. Here we found le vera! Figures ot Stone, the Work- 
manlhip of Nature, and ft^'ange Holes or Caverns in the
