ANNOT.

_By the great Satyr and Tyger of Hircania_, is meant, the King of _Persia_, who is also King of _Hircania_, abounding with _Tygers_.

_Carmania_ is a Province in _Asia_, belonging to the _Turk_.

The _Thyrren Phocean_ is the City of _Marseilles_ in _France_, so called by the Author in this Book; because it was a Colony of the _Phocenses_ in _Greece_; it is also called _Thyrren_, because it is seated upon the _Tyrrhenean_ Sea, as _Virgil_ saith,
