 The greatest ornament of this country, was that famous Joannes Picus Mirandulanus.; whose life S. Thomas Moor wrote, and having written it, lived it.

From Mirandula I struck to Parma, and so to Piacenza, Lodi, and Marigno, described all above; and at last to Milan again, where I had been before, and where my giro of Italy ended, as now my Journey and description doth, I taking here a new rise from Milan, and crossing through Swisserland by the Lake of Como, and over mount S. Godart, came to Basil. Where embarking upon the Rhine, I saw Strasbourg, Brisac, Spire, Philipsbourg, Openhem, Coblentz, Hamerstede, Wormes, Francfurt, Mayence, Colen, Dusseldorp, Skinksconce, Rais, Wesel, Arnehem and divers other Rhenish townes, Then having viewed Holland and Flanders, I came at last to Calais, and so home to my own Dear country England, by the way of Dover.
