Excerpt from The Three Voyages of Vasco De Gama, and His Viceroyalty: From the Lendas Da India of Gaspar Corrèa The account here given of Vasco da Gama's voyages is taken from Gaspar Correa's Lendas da India, and is entirely new; for Correa's work, which has only been printed within the last ten years, enters into much more detail than the other chroniclers, fre quently differs from them, and has not been made use of by the great majority of the historians who wrote subsequently to him.
