(2) A short account of the two voyages made to the north by Jan Huygen van Linschoten, taken from the Latin edition of his voyages, published in 1599. (3) An account of De Quir's voyage and discovery of the new continent, "Terra australis incognita". (4 and 5) Extracts relative to the Samoiedes and other peoples of the north, with a description of Siberia by Isaac Massa. All of these, but the chapter to Linschoten's voyages, were translated from the collection of Hessel Gerritsz, by Gothard Artus"--Church
