He had received the narrative from the Baron, one of whose tenants had been amongst Drake's crew in this voyage, and his own labour may not have been a translation, but merely an improvement of the French sailor's text. The narrative is certainly not identical with the English "World Encompassed," 1567-96 DRAKE'S VOYAGES-continued. although it goes over the same details, yet the navigator is always styled nostre General, just as he is " our General " in the English account. This French Drake was first printed in 1613; in 1627 it first appeared "augmented with the second part," this second part being an account of Asia and Eastern Europe, and in nowise connected with Drake. The Map, however, is the most curious feature of the book, and is EXCESSIVELY RARE. It was by a Dutchman, "Nich. Sype," and exhibits Nova Albion, that is the coast of California and nearly all the interior of North America. 28545 SAVILE (Henry) A LIBELL OF SPANISH LIES: fovnd at the Sacke of Cales, discoursing the fight of the West Indies, twixt the English Nauie being fourteene Ships and Pinasses, and a fleete of twentie saile of the King of Spaine, and of the death of Sir Francis Drake.

Lescarbot had urged Louis XIII to the same end four years previously, but in vain. Whitbourne was a Devonshire man, and served against the Armada in 1588, in a ship of his own. He had already made a voyage to Newfoundland about 1580. He met Sir Humphrey Gilbert at St. John's a few years later, and frequently returned to the same shores afterwards.
