From thence wee sayled east-ward 8 [32] myles, till the first of August about midnight, in calme faire weather, and saw Trumpsand[32] south-east from vs, the sunne being north [½ p. 10 P.M.], and wee being tenne [40] miles from the [[47]]land; and so sayled till the sunne was east [½ p. 7 P.M.], with a litle cold gale[33] out of the east north-east; and after that, south-east 9 miles and a halfe [38 miles], till the sunne was north-west.
Then we wound about againe, being halfe a mile [2 miles] from the land, and sayled east and by north three [12] miles, till the 3 of August, the sunne south-west [1 P.M.]; and then along by the land about 5 [20] miles.
Then we wound about again, because there lay a rocke or sand, that reached about a mile and a halfe [6 miles] out from the land into the sea, whereon Isbrant, the uize-admiral,[34] stroke with his shippe: but the weather being faire and good, he got off againe. When he stroke vpon it, he was a litle before vs: and when we heard him cry out, and saw his shippe in danger, wee in all haste wound about; and the wind being north-east and by east, and south-east, and south-east and by south,[35] wee sayled 5 [20] or 6 [24] myles along by the land, till the sunne was south, vpon the 4 of August.
Then we tooke the height of the sunne, and found it to be seauentie and one degrees and ¼. At which time till noone[36] wee had calme weather: and hauing the wind southerly wee sayled east and by north, till the fifth of August, the sunne being south-east [½ p. 7 A.M.], the North Cape[37] lying about two [8] miles east from vs; and when the sunne was north-west [[48]][½ p. 7 P.M.], the Mother and her Daughters[38] lay south-ward from vs four [16] miles, and in that time we sailed about fourteene [56] miles.
Then we sailed east north-east till the 6 of August, when wee had the sunne west north-west [5 P.M.], and then Isbrandt, the uize-admiral, came to vs with his ship, and so bating some of our sayles,[39] wee sayled about 10 [40] miles.
Then wee hoysed vp our sayles againe,[40] till the sunne was north-west, and after that halde vp againe[41] with an east and east north-east wind, and sailed south and by west with a stiffe gale till the 7 of August, that the sunne was south-east; then there came a ship of Enckhuysen out of the White Sea, and then we esteemed that wee had sailed about 8 [32] miles.
The sunne being south [¾ p. 10 A.M.], the North Cape lay south-west and by south from vs about a mile and a halfe [6 miles], and the Mother and her Daughters south-west from vs about 3 [12] miles; then hauing an east and by north wind we wound about, and held our course north and by east, and sailed 14 [56] miles till the 8 of August, when the sunne was south-west [1 P.M.]; then we wound south and by east, and so held her course till the 9 of August, that the sunne was south; and then we saw a high point of land south-east from vs, and another high point of land south-ward,[42] about 4 [16] miles from vs, as we gest,[43] and so we sailed about 14 [56] miles: and then againe we [[49]]wound north-east and by north, till the 10 of August, the sun being east [½ p. 4 A.M.], and sailed about 8 [32] miles; after that we wound south-ward againe, till the sunne was north-west [½ p. 7 P.M.], and sailed, as we gest, 10 [40] miles.
Then wee wound about againe, when the North Cape lay west and by south from vs about 9 [36] miles, the North-kyen[44] being south and by west from vs about 3 [12] miles, and sailed north north-east till the 11 of August, in very mistie weather 10 [40] miles, till the sunne was south [¾ p. 10 A.M.]
From thence wee wound about againe, with an east north-east wind, and sailed south-east and by south 8 [32] miles, till the sunne was south-west [1 P.M.] vpon the 12 of August; then the North-kyen lying south-west and by south from vs about 8 [32] miles, we lay and draue at sea, in calme weather,[45] till the 13 of August, when the sunne was south south-west [¾ p. 11 A.M.], and in that time sailed about 4 [32] miles.
Then we sailed south-east and by east about 4 glasses,[46] and the Iron-hogge with her companie (being marchants)[47] took their course south-ward, and wee sailed till the 14 of August (when the sunne was south) about 18 [72] miles, and from thence for the most part held one course till the 15 of August, the sunne being east, and there we cast out the lead and found 70 fadome deepe, and sailed 38 [152] miles till the sunne was south.
