[935] Aendt Noordtsche cust over de Witte Zee—on the coast of Norway, on the other side of the White Sea. [↑]

But, as is remarked in the note on that observation, the error is more likely to be on that than on the present occasion. [↑]
[939] Een moye coelte—a nice breeze. [↑]

[942] Kilduijn. See page 7, note 1. [↑]
