Excerpt from The Historie of Travaile Into Virginia Britannia: Expressing the Cosmographie and Comodities of the Country, Together With the Manners and Customes of the People Two copies of the manuscript, both in the author's handwriting (for there are a suficient number of instances of it in the British Museum to prove its identity), are all that have come under the Editor's notice; one in the Sloane Collection, N o. 1622, in the British Museum, from which the present publication has been transcribed; and the other among the Ash molean Manuscripts, no. 1754. The only difference between these two, is an alteration in the title of the second book, and the addition to the titles, both of the first and second books, of the motto of Alget qui non ardet. The Museum copy is dedicated to Sir Francis Bacon, Lord High Chancellor and that in the Ashmolean Library to Sir Allen Apsley, Purveyor to His Majesties N avie Royall.
