_Travels of Two English Pilgrims._--

"A True and Strange Discourse of the Travailes of Two English
Pilgrimes: what admirable Accidents befell them in their Journey
to Jerusalem, Gaza, Grand Cayro, Alexandria, and other places.
Also, what rare Antiquities, Monuments, and notable Memories
(concording with the Ancient Remembrances in the Holy
Scriptures), they sawe in the Terra Sancta; with a perfect
Description of the Old and New Jerusalem, and Situation of the
Countries about them. A Discourse of no lesse Admiration, then
well worth the regarding: written by one of them on the behalfe
of himselfe and his fellowe Pilgrime. Imprinted at London for
Thomas Archer, and are to be solde at his Shoppe, by the Royall
Exchange. 1603."

A copy of this 4to. tract, formerly in the hands of Francis Meres, the
author of _Wit's Commonwealth_, has the following MS. note:--

"Timberley, dwellinge on Tower Hill, a maister of a ship, made
this booke, as Mr. Anthony Mundye tould me. Thomas, at Mrs.
Gosson's, sent my wyfe this booke for a token, February 15. A.D.
1602."
