Round about the town there are very many gardens and orchards of the fruits of the country, marvellous fair, where the people have great recreation. ¶ There are near about this city of Mexico many rivers and standing waters, which have in them a monstrous kind of fish, which is marvellous ravening, and a great devourer of men and cattle. He is wont to sleep upon the dry land many times, and if there come in the meantime any man or beast and wake or disquiet him, he speedeth well if he get from him. He is like unto a serpent, saving that he doth not fly, neither hath he wings. ¶ There is west out of Mexico a port town which is on the South Sea, called Puerto de Acapulco, whereat there are ships which they have ordinarily for the navigation of China, which they have newly found. This port is threescore leagues from Mexico. en Q82112 en @ellipsis of:State of Mexico state c/Mexico Toluca. en Edomex<id:Q82112> en Q55712 en municipality p:pref/Pampanga r/Central Luzon c/Philippines. +, Pampanga en number of places c/USA: en CDP twp:Suf/Jefferson co/Miami County s/Indiana. en unincorporated community co/Crittenden County s/Kentucky. en town co/Oxford County s/Maine. en unincorporated community co/Allegany County s/Maryland. en unincorporated community co/Carroll County s/Maryland. en city/county seat co/Audrain County s/Missouri. en town/and/village therein, in co/Oswego County s/New York.
