titel | The True and perfect Description of three Voyages, so strange and woonderfull, that the like hath never been heard of before : Done and performed three yeares, one after the other, by the Ships of Holland and Zeland, on the North sides of Norway, Muscovia, and Tartaria, towards the Kingdomes of Chataia and China; shewing the discoverie of the Straights of Weigates, Nova Zembla, and the Countrie lying under 80. degrees; which is thought to be Greenland: where never any man had bin before: with the cruell Beares, and other Montsters of the Sea, and the unsupportable and extreame cold that is found to be in those places. And how that in the last Voyage, the Shippe was so inclosed by the Ice, that it was left there, whereby the men were forced to build a house in the cold and desart Countrie of Nova Zembla, wherin they continued 10. monthes togeahter, and never saw nor heard of any man, in most great cold and extreame miserie; and how after that, to save their lives, they were constrained to sayle above 350. Duchmiles, which is above 1000 miles English, in litle open Boates, along and over the maine Seas, in most great danger, and with extreame labour, unspeakable troubles, and great hunger.
