Сторінка 71 - There was a great engine at the lower end of the room, which had motion, and in it were the images of seahorses, with other terrible fishes, which were ridden by Moors. The indecorum was, that there was all fish and no water.
Сторінка 68 - ... the player when he cometh in, must ever begin with telling where he is, or else the tale will not be conceived.
