Note 801 — HOOFDSTUK VI. ENGELSCHE MEDEDINGERS.
Reading edition
Reeds Purchas merkte op bij de beschrijving der Nederlandsche reis van 1596/7: „They are said to haue touched in this Nauigation on Greene-land. How-euer that be, they continued no trade nor Discouerie thither, till the English diuers yeeres after had made a new Discouerie, and found there a profitable Whale-fishing.” (Purchas, Pilgrimes. III p. 815.)
