Notes

"Frick and Schweitzer originally published their travels in German. They appeared as: 'Christoph. Schweitzers Wurttemb. Journal-und-Tage-buch seiner sechs jahrigen ost indienischen Reise,' Tübingen, 1688; and 'Christoff Frikens Ost indienische Räysen und Kriegs-Dienste,' Ulm, 1692. In 1694, a Dutch translation of both books, by S. de Vries, was published at Amsterdam, in a volume which includes also the travels of Elias Hesse in the East Indies, and was entitled: 'Drie seer senmercklijcke reysen nae en door veelerley gewesten in Oost-Indien.' S.L.'s translation [A relation of two several voyages made into the East Indies] of 1700, here reproduced, was made from the Dutch version"-- Introd.
