They appear to have been taken from an edition of his voyages printed at Rotterdam in 1616, entitled Novus Orbis, id est, navigationes primae in Americam [sic, actually not attributed to Vespucci but edited by Simon Grynaeus from material collected by Johann Huttich, which was first printed in Pars, 1532]. Next follows a translation of Hamor's Virginia published at London in 1615, entitled A true discourse of the present state of Virginia. Lastly, comes the relation of a voyage made to New England by captain John Smith, printed in London in 1616, and entitled A description of New England. Cf.
