CORREA, GASPAR, LENDAS da India por. This most valuable, interesting, and
detailed chronicle of Portuguese India was not published till in our own
day it was issued by the Royal Academy of Lisbon—4 vols. in 7, in 4to,
1858-1864. The author went to India apparently with Jorge de Mello in
1512, and at an early date began to make notes for his history. The
latest year that he mentions as having in it written a part of his
history is 1561. The date of his death is not known.
Most of the quotations from Correa, begun by Burnell and continued by
me, are from this work published in Lisbon. Some are, however, taken
from "The THREE VOYAGES OF VASCO DA GAMA and his Viceroyalty, from the
Lendas da India of Gaspar Correa," by the Hon. E. J. Stanley (now Lord
Stanley of Alderley). HAK. SOC. 1869.

8th, 1673; 5 books of the 12th, Paris, 1645. The 9th was first published
in an edition issued in 1736; and 120 pp. of the 10th (when, is not
clear). But the whole of the 10th, in ten books, is included in the
publication of 1778. The 11th was lost, and a substitute by the editor is
given in the ed. of 1778. Couto died 10th Dec. 1616.
