[Footnote 142: See on this point De Veer, leaf 25 and an unpaged leaf between pages 30 and 31 in Blavii _Atlas Major_, tom. i. That a mistake occurred in the date is not possible, because the latitude was determined by solar observations on the 29th (19th) February, the 21st (11th) and 31st (21st) March (see De Veer, I. 27). Besides, at the correct date, the 3rd February (24th January), a conjunction of Jupiter and the moon was observed, whereby the difference of longitude between Ice Haven and Venice was determined to be 75 deg.. However erroneous this determination may be, it shows, however, that the date was correct. ] [Footnote 143: Built along with a weigh-house intended for the Norwegians in 1582 by the first vojvode in Kola (_Hamel_, p. 66). In Pontanus (_Rerum et urbis Amstelodamensium Historia_, Amsterodami, 1611, p. 142), there is a drawing of the inner yard of this house, and of the reception of shipwrecked men there. ] [Footnote 144: The year is incorrectly given as 1647 by F. von Adelung (_Kritisch-Litteraerische Uebersicht_, &c.). ] [Footnote 145: The following editions are enumerated: four French, Paris, 1671, 1672, 1676, and Amsterdam, 1708; six German, Hamburg, 1675, Leipzig, 1703, 1706, 1710, 1711, and 1718; one Latin, Glueckstadt, 1675; two Dutch, Amsterdam, 1681 and 1685; one Italian, printed in Conte Aurelio degli Anzi's _Il Genio Vagante_, Parma, 1691; two English, one printed separately in 1706, the other in Harris, _Navigantium atque Itinerantium Bibl_., 3rd edition.
