Summary
Nunc dicendum est, quid e regione Groenlandiae objaceat et recessibus, ante commemoratis. Furdustrandse nomen terrse est, ubi tantum gelu est, ut quantum scire datur, inhabituri non possit; ab ea austrum versus est Hellulandia, regio Scrælingorum appellata; inde brevi spatio abest Vinlandia Bona, quam nonnulli ex Africa protendi aestimant. Inter Vinlandiam et Groenlandiam est Ginnungayap, quod influit ex mari dicto oceano, totum terrarum orbem ambiente.
P. 300. DESCEIPTIO GRŒNLANDIÆ AUCTORE IVARE BARDI, folio. (TREATISE OF IVER BOTY.)
Hæ relationes servatse sunt ab archiepiscopo Nidrosiensi Erico Walckendorph, qui anno 1516, novam ad Groenlandiam iterum inveniendam expeditionem moliens, varia ad hujus terrse descriptionem pertinentia collegit. Prseter supra, p. 282, allata manuscripta et editiones, quarum Extrupii ex manuscripto Regise Dresdensis Bibliothecse, G. No. 52a, signato est desumta, alise versiones qusedam adhiberi merentur. [Here follows the title in English, as to be found on page 230.]
Quam multifariam nominum topographicorum in Danicis manuscriptis, et graviorem quidem in duobus horum vetustissimis editionibus depravationem consideremus, similis, et ex aliqua parte pessima, confusio in translatione, quee tria porro diversi generis idiomata, Germaniæ, Belgiæ et Angliæ permeaverat, minime erit miranda. At nihilominus dictam versionem vetustissimo cuidam originalis exemplari, quod bonas quasdam lectiones servaverat, superinstructam esse cernimus, quam igitur (P notatam) in hac collatione negligere noluimus. Addidit hujus transcripti auctor (p. 230) ipsam relationem in insulis Fiereyensibus fuisse repertam, in an old reckoning book written above one hundred yeeres ago.
