[ E] ¶ The eighth Countie.

THe eighth and last countie of the prouince of Leinster, is the countie Wickloe, this was lately made a countie in the gouernment of Sir Arthur Chichester; It is bounded on the East with the sea, on the South with the countie of Wexford, on the West with the counties of Carlough and Kildare, and on the North with the countie of Dublin:

Asfor townes in this countie there is no mention made of any of importance and therefore I passe them ouer at this time.

There is the castle of Lamtaddon and diuers others of lesse importance.* 1.1

The chiefest gentlemen of this countie are Sir Charles Occaroll,* 1.2 and diuers others of [ F] his name. Now that I haue briefely touched euery particular both in the prouince of Linster, and also in euery particular countie of this prouince, I will now returne and shew you the commodities of the prouince of Munster, with the counties, townes and places of importance vnder the iurisdiction thereof.
