Note 16 — Translation of CAPTAIN CUELLAR'S Narrative of the Spanish Armada.
Robert Crawford translation
The part within the brackets was accidentally omitted in copying the rough draft of the original translation. Montes signifies both mountains and woods. Cuellar uses montaña to signify mountain, and montes apparently for woods. He also makes use of bosque, a wood with thick underbrush, or a thicket.
