h burnt three weekes together. M230 Greate heate in Newfoundelande in sommer. 60 This voyage of Cortereale took place in 1500. 61 In all these Italian quotations, the edition by Dr. Deane has the word _e_ or _ed_ spelled _et_, a curious blunder. 62 In a "True Discourse of the late voyages of discoverie," written by George Best, who accompanied Frobisher, London, 1578, and reprinted by the Hakluyt Society. M231 A singuler commoditie for dyenge of Englishe clothe. Thinges incident to a navy. M232 Prevention to be taken hede of. M233 Idle persons mutynous and desire alteration in the state. 63 This is a lost book. Emden was the capital of East Friseland. With reference to the removal of the English merchants at Antwerp to Emden, consult Strype's Life of Grindall, Oxford, cap, ix. 64 No less than seven editions of Sleidan's _De quatuor monarchiis_ were printed by the Elzeviers alone, a proof of the popularity of the work. An English translation by John Daus was published in London in 1560. M234 Six hundred thousand pounde gayned yerely by Englishe wolles. 65 Reprinted in Hakluyt's "Divers Voyages," 1582. M235 Objection. Aunswer. 66 See Myles Phillip's Voyage, _post_. Also consult Nicholas, _Pleasaunt Historie of the Conquest of the Weast India_, 1578, pp. 378-9. M236 The benefits of plantings aboute Cape Bryton or Newfounde lande. 67 Utrecht. M237 Kinge Phillipps injuries offred by his treasures. 68 These baseless assertions of complicity on the part of Phillip in the attempts on the life of William of Nassau, only prove the bitter prejudices of the Protestant party. I am surprised to find Dr. Deane, in a note on this passage, endorsing Hakluyt's unfounded charges. 69 Marnix de Sainte Aldegonde was born at Brussels in 1538. Died 1598. He was at one time Ambassador to England.--See Motley's United Netherlands, I. 145.--C.D. M238 The example of Antigonus. 70 Golfo Dulce. M239 A speciall note of a passage. 71 No such river was ever cut.--C.D. M240 The Frenche. 72 Off the cost of Venezuela. 73 Port-au-Prince. 74 It is strange the Hakluyt should omit St. Vincent, Dominica, Guadeloupe, etc., and mention such small islands as Marigalante. The other two islands named are probably Urala and Curasoa. M2
