from their respective Ports to the River

the Texel and other Ports on that Coast, having

been long bearing the Sea at the Months of those
<

Rivers and Ports whither they were bound, and

finding it impossible to get in because of the

Ice, and that great Mountains of Ice appear'd

at Sea, by which they were in danger of being

enclos'd and crush'd to pieces, they made off

to Sea, and are come into our Ports. One of

these Ships having lain some time near a great

some to be alive therein, but making Signals

of great Distress, but they durst not by any

raised the Sea to be something rough, a great

piece of Ice broke off from the rest, having

several hundred people upon it, and went off

to Sea. What became of the people they can

give no account, only that they saw several

boats at work to get to them, which they

believe it would be very difficult to do, and if

not, they must all inevitably perish, either with

Cold, or in the Sea.
