Item _for changing_ Petty-coats _for_ Hose, _And doing something, which I wont disclose._ Item _for making such a pretty toy, Your_ wanton Mistris, _and your_ Cabbin-boy; _Whom Morning, Noon, and sometimes very late, Fail’d not to make your constant_ Trickry-mate. _Thus stands th’ Account, and now we’re even just, Discharging you of what we did intrust, If not quite broke, for some new_ Credit _look, You ne’re shall enter more into our_ Book. I shall not trouble you with the particulars of an exact Journal of our voyage from _Surrat_ till we came to _Venice_, to which part we were bound, but only give you some light touches by the way. The last day of _April_ we cross’d the _Æquator_, and the first of _May_ made a new way by judgement, and by observation our way was four Leagues to the South-wards, having a rowling Sea out of the Souther board. The fourth of _June_ in the morning we saw the Island _Mauritius_ and a little after three or four small Islands appeared also; we stood in betwixt _Mauritius_ and these Islands, and when we were thwart the point of Rocks which lye on _Mauritius_ side, we edg’d off towards the Island, giving that point and breach a good birth; our depth was twenty, and two and twenty fathom hard ground, and being within one mile of the westermost rock, we had twenty four fathom, the wind being at south east, we left into the shore about a mile distant from it we anchored that night. Here we rode near ten days, refreshing our selves with what the Island afforded, as Goats, Hogs, and fresh fish good store. It is reported here are many fish rank poyson, we did eat all sorts, as _Mullets_, _Lantarasks_, _Whiskers_, _Rockfish and Garfish_, and many others, but found no harm by feeding on them. We set sail hence and about 28 Leagues distance from _Mauritius_, we pass’d by an Island call’d the _Moschachenas_, near which we sprung a leak, that each hour we pumpt above two hundred and fifty strokes, it being gusty whether and a great Sea out of the South-east, but by our Carpenters it was happily stopt, although it was under the next timber abaft the well near the Keel, which by rummidging the Hold they found it so to be. The next place we anchored at was the Island of _Johanna_, here we had much lightning and thunder, the wind having been out of the Sea in the day, and off shore in the night. This place affordeth very good flesh great quantity of fish and fowl, we had a Bullock for ten long red Cornelion heads; we had also excellent _Oranges_ and _Lemmons_, the people are very loving and friendly, having two Governours or Captains among them, the one call’d _Androm Pela_, and the other _Masse Core_, they desired of us no other money for ought we bought than those red heads. Sailing from hence we sprung our main top-mast, which our Carpenters taking down fisht it and got it up again the same day. On the third of _September_ in latitude 16. d.
