Neverthelesse, I have yeelded to your former importunity, and sent you this my journall to supply a vacant roome amongst your more important discourses. Nowe being provided for this last enterprize, rather to see some practise and experience, then any wonders or profite, I weighed ancker from Southampton road the sixt of November 1594. But the winde falling scant, it was the 17. day of the same moneth before I could put into the Sea.

Morucco I learned to watering our selves at Paracoa, we set saile to see further of the Indies, leaving the yle of Trinidad the 12. day of March. The 13.

Notwithstanding all these crosses allthere grew many sicke. The first hope was frustrated, because my vice-admiral was returned into England with two prizes. The second expectation fell out to our great comfort: for I tooke two very finday of February, to try their fortunes in the Indies not appointing any other place to meet but England , furnishing them with all the provision that I could spare, and dividing my victuals equally wiis rich Spanish fleet: but finding none, and my victuals almost spent, I directed my course for England . Returning alone, and worse manned by halfe then I went foorth, my fortune was to meete a gr for her to escape sinking.

Thus cheared as a desolate traveller with the company of my small and newe erected Fleete, I continued my purpose for the West Indies, and first for Cape Blanco in Africa upon the deserts of Libya . My last hope was to meete my lost ship, and withall to renue my victuals upon the Canthers, which are Portugal fishermen: but the Canthers had bene so frighted by Frenchmen, as I could get none. Riding under this W tawny Moores, so wilde, as they would but call to my Caravels from the shore, who road very neere it.
