"God is together gammen and wisedom." The same ornament of speech is also frequent in the Latin language. Virgil says, "Tales casus Cassandra canebat." And again, in his address to Augustus, "Dum dubitet natura marem, faceretve puellam, Natus es, o pulcher, pene puella, puer."

Great thanks, laud, and honour ought to be given unto the clerks, poets, and historiographs that have written many noble books of wisedom of the lives, passions, and miracles of holy saints, of histories of noble and famous acts and faites, and of the chronicles since the beginning of the creation of the world unto this present time, by which we be daily informed and have knowledge of many things of whom we should not have known if they had not left to us their monuments written.

There is likewise a great city named Barbaregaf, and Ascon, from whence it is said that the Queene of Saba came to Hierusalem to heare the wisedom of Salomon. This citie is but litle, yet very faire, and one of the chiefe cities in Ethiope.
