Who being cast there by a shipwrack, lived 35 years in that country, and gives a particular description of the manners, customs, religion, laws, studies and wars, of those southern people; and of some animals peculiar to that place: with several other rarities. These memoirs were thought so curious, that they were kept secret in the closet of a late great minister of state, and never published till now since his death.
