Of the Isles of the Ethiopian sea about the cape of Buena esperança.

THis sea I take to be most exceeding deepe, because it hath fewer Isles then the former, and those few which it hath are but little ones. The first that was discouered on this side the cape of Buena Esperança is that of Don Aluarez, situate in thirtie degrees and an halfe. And to the northwest of that is the Isle of Tristan d' Acunna beeing distant 〈◊〉〈◊〉. miles from the cape, and beyond the Equinoctiall eight and thirtie de∣grees; which beeing of a round forme, containeth in compasse fiftie leagues. It is full of birdes, and especially of sea-crowes or cormorants, and round about it lie foure other small islets. The marriners hold, that neere vn∣to this isle, as vnto that of Bermuda, there are continual stormes and tem∣pestes. Not far from the main are certaine dry and rockie isles, and others of none account.
