SACQVENVMMENER a kinde of berries almost like vnto capres but somewhat
greater which grow together in clusters vpon a plant or herb that is
found in shalow waters: being boiled eight or nine hours according to
their kind are very good meate and holesome, otherwise if they be eaten
they will make a man for the time franticke or extremely sicke.

There is a kind of reed which beareth a seed almost like vnto our rie or
wheat, & being boiled is good meate. [In]

In our trauailes in some places wee founde wilde peaze like vnto ours in
England but that they were lesse, which are also good meate.

'Of a kinde of fruite or berrie in the forme of
Acornes.'

There is a kind of berrie or acorne, of which there are fiue sorts that
grow on seuerall kinds of trees; the one is called 'Sagatemener', the
second 'Osamener', the third 'Pummuckoner'. These kind of acorns they
vse to drie vpon hurdles made of reeds with fire vnderneath almost after
the maner as we dry malt in England. When they are to be vsed they first
water them vntil they be soft & then being sod they make a good
victuall, either to eate so simply, or els being also pounded, to make
loaues or lumpes of bread. These be also the three kinds of which, I
said before, the inhabitants vsed to make sweet oyle.

An other sort is called 'Sapummener' which being boiled or parched doth
eate and taste like vnto chestnuts. They sometime also make bread of
this sort.
