Eaftern Names of it, are not to be looked upon as fuch, b&ing 
never uled in that Senfe by the Orientals. 
5 . From thele Eaftern Names are derived thole by which all the 
European Nations do ordinarily exprefs both the Coffee Plant^ 
Fruit and Liquor. As we had the firft Knowledge of thele things 
from them, it was natural to take their Names along with them, 
and only by degrees new mould them a little, according to the 
Genius of each particular Language into which they were adopted. 
The Turkijh way of pronouncing Cahouah^ n)i%. with an n) Con- 
lonant, as we have heard, occafioned firll the writing of it here 
in England with ph, and afterwards with \ which is equivalent 
thereunto. The ca we find changed into in Sandy's Time; 
. /. e. in the Year 1^28, in which his Travels were publifhed; 
and it was near the Year 16^9^ that is, leveral Years after there 
were publick Coffee houfes in London, before the Termination ee 
was fully lettled 3 for we find Judge Rumfey and Sir Henry Blount 
writing this Word fometimes with ie, fometimes with ee^ but . 
Ho^el always ules the latter; and it has continued ever fince his 
time. . Sir Thomas Pope Blount writes it Ibmetimes cauphe, having 
found it lo written, probably, in lome old Book : From whence 
there is ground to conclude, that the Tnrkijh ca was firll changed 
into cau, which being pronounced pretty much the lame way 
as cOy this lall, as being lliorter, came at length to be ufed in- 
ftcad of it. 
Variations of the like kinds, and by the like degrees, may be 
oblerved, no doubt, in the other modern European Languages: 
But it is not our prelent Bufinefs to enquire further into them. 
As Coffee was unknown during all the time in which the 
Latin can in any Senle be laid to have remained a living Lan- 
guage, we are not to expedl any true Latin Word for it : To 
fupply that Want, Authors who affedl to find Latin for every 
thing, how much Ibever unknown to the Latins themlelves, have 
had Recourfe to the two univerlal Engines, which are always 
ready in time of Need, noiz. infleding the lall Syllable of this 
Word into a Latin Termination, and exprelling it by long Cir- 
cumlocutions, which ought rather to be called Delcriptions than 
Names. Of the firll kind is the coff'ea^ a, of Dr. ^incy^ and 
the coaq^a of Pechey. The former is allowable enough, had 
there been any Necelfity for it; but the other is owing either to 
the Stupidity of its Author, or uled with a Defign to impole on 
the Reader: For what can be concluded from thele Words, coffee 
is in Latin, Coava; but either that Pechey took coa^a for a ge- 
nuine Latin Word himfelf, or had a mind to perfuade other Peo- 
ple that it was fo ? It
