Harl. MSS., 2301. About 1625 or earlier, and by Sir Hen. Manwayring. It was printed in 1644 under the title of The Sea-man’s Dictionary. There is another MS. copy among the State Papers (S. P. Dom., Chas. I, cxxvii), called A Brief Abstract ... of all Parts and Things belonging to a Ship. The three versions differ but little from each other.
