DALLAM'S TRAVELS.
Spayens gallies and men of warr, to keepe the straites. On
the easte side of the towne tharis a greate mountayne,
wheare on a great parte of the towne dothe stande. This
mountayne is verrie upryghte on bothe sides, but on the
easte sid it is so uprighte that no man can go to the top
of it. It standes cross wyse to the seae. On the fore end
tharis a stronge bullworke, by which means the towne is
more secure.
We sett oute from Plimmouthe the 16th of Marche,
havinge than verrie could wether, and no sine of any
grene thingc on trees or hcdgis; and the 27, at the entringc
of the straites, the wether was exsedinge hoote, and we
myghte se the feeldes on bothe sides verrie grene, and the
tres full blowne, the which unto me was a verrie greate
wonder to finde suche an alteration in a 11 dayes. Ryghte
over againste Jeblatore, on Barbarie side, thar is a towne
verrie fayer to our vew, calcd Shutte.1 This towne is
waled aboutc, and the fcldes about it verrie plcasante, and
of good soyle.
Thoughe on bothe sides of seae tharis hudge mountains
and Raged Rockes, on the Easte end of this towne a litlc
tharis a Large and stronge bullworke (or forte), and the
Lyke is on the weste side. The kinge of Spayne Dothe
also houlde that toune, beinge in Barberie.
A litle further on the Coste of Spayne thar is a Towne
caled Marvels,2 but I could not well disarne it for the fogge
which at that time Laye upon the seae. The nexte towne
is caled grand Malligan,:i and than Sallabrin;1 which towne
is fortie Leages easte of Jeblatore.
The 28 of Marche we sayled still a longe by the shore
