_Vesputius_ having left this desolate Isle, three hundred Leagues a Stern, enter’d a Haven, to which he gave the name of St. _Abdy_, where he stay’d two Months, expecting the return of those which he had sent into the Countrey; but seeing it in vain to wait any longer, he proceeded on his Journey, and Sailing in between the _Abrelhos_, in the River _Curubabo_, he built a strong Fort, Garrison’d it with twenty four Men, twelve pieces of Ordnance, and Provisions for six Moneths: Five Moneths _Vesputius_ had spent in the building this Castle; when he return’d home with one Ship, laden with _Brasill_ Wood, where approaching _Lisbon_, beyond all expectation, the Inhabitants of the City ran to Congratulate his happy return. And from this _Americus Vesputius_, the _New World_ is to this day call’d _America_. SECT. VII. _The Expedition of_ Alphonso, Fogeda, Diego Nicuesa, Ancisus, _and_ Roderick Colmenares. [Sidenote: Wonderful Tree on _Codego_.] _Americus Vesputius_ was scarce fitted out in _Lisbon_, when _Fogeda_ set Sail with three hundred Men from _Beata_, the chiefest Haven of _Hispaniola_, to the Island _Codego_, inhabited by Naked People, but of comely Personage, and withal expert and most excellent Archers: Here he found a very strange Tree, which bears a Fruit not unpleasing to the Palate, yet deadly Poyson, and besides, whoever chances to sleep under their shadow, loose both their understanding and Eye-sight, and never attain to their former Sences, except they take some _Opiates_, as dangerous, and so by long sleep, recover. [Sidenote: _Fogedo_’s cruelty and destruction.] [Sidenote: Famine.] [Sidenote: Strange accident.] [Sidenote: _Ancisus_ escapes great danger.] [Sidenote: _Colmenares_ Expedition.] [Sidenote: His strange reception.]
