Show moreDoor den Generaal Hendrik Middleton ... ; Als mede dag-register Van Kapiteyn Nicolaas Dounton ... Beyde gedaan in het Jaar 1610. en vervolgens ; Nu alder-eerst uyt het Engels vertaald. Rare folio edition of this Dutch translation of the journals of Henry Middleton (d. 1613) and Nicholas Downton (Dounton, 1561-1615). Downton was lieutenant under Sir Henry Middleton on the sixth voyage set forth by the English East India Company, in 1610-12. Their ships landed in Aden before continuing to Al-Mukha (Mocha) in Yemen, where Middleton's ship ran aground and had to be refloated. "After an initially friendly reception, the local ruler changed his tune and imprisoned Middleton and his crew on the pretext pf their breaking an embargo against Christian shipping. After spending three weeks as prisoners at Mocha, they were taken inland to Ta'iz and the San'a, where the Pasha explained that the arrival of English ships had been resented by the local Muslim traders. Released in February 1611, Middleton and his crew returned to Mocha and sailed on 9 Aug. 1611 for Surat in India" (Howgego I, 719; cf. also p. 320). - Slightly browned throughout; title page loosened. The engravings show an English ship exploding the the harbour, Middleton in chains in a Mocha jail, etc. Title vignette.
