Summary
Henry Hudson, 1607, discovered further north toward the pole, then, perhaps, any before him. He found himselfe in 80 degrees, 23 minutes, where they felt it hot, and dranke water to coole their thirst. They saw land (as they thought) to 82, and further on the shore they had snow, morses teeth, deeres homes, whale-bones, and footing of other beasts, with a streame of fresh water. The next yeere, 1608, he set forth on a discovery to the north-east, at which time they met, as both himselfe and Juet have testified, a mermaid in the sea, seene by Thomas Hils and Robert Rainer. Another voyage he made, 1609, and coasted Newfoundland, and thence along to Cape Cod. His last and fatall voyage was 1610, which I mentioned in my former edition, relating the same as Hesselius Gerardus had guided me, by his card and reports, who affirmeth that he followed the way which Captaine Winwood had before searched by Lumleys Inlet, in 61 degrees, so passing thorow the strait to 50, etc.
