Of Polanda.
OF the fruite Polanda or Apolanda,* 1.1 growing in Calicut, the tree where∣on the fruite groweth, is vi. or vii. feete high, and beareth not past foure or fiue leaues hanging by certaine slips, euerie leafe so great, as will couer ouer or a∣bout a man from raine, or heate of the Sunne. Forth of the middle of the leafe, groweth a twigge, like the stalke of a beane, which bringeth forth flowers and also fruite, of a handfull long, and as big as a mans arme. These fruites are ga∣thered vnripe, because they ripe best bee∣ing gathered: they growe clustering, & many, and because of such increase, they are sold there, after the rate of 20. a pen∣nie, with many other rare fruites.
