Between the years 527 and 584, three new expeditions, under Ida and Cridda, gained England for the Saxons, who divided it into seven kingdoms; and it was not until three centuries had elapsed that they were again united under the authority of Egbert. The African races, in their turn, visited the South of Europe. In 712, the Moors crossed the Straits of Gibraltar, under the lead of Tarik.

"I believe the discomfort and exposure of the trip render it impracticable at the present time and at the present season.
