The 45th Chapter, Page 97, where it speaks of the tides and the rising of the waters of Malacca; this Chapter was forgotten to be placed, which should be as follows.

On the 9th of June I gained experience of the tides of Malacca, namely in the Roadstead where the ships lie; and I found that it was full sea or high water at half past ten in the forenoon, being the first day of the New Moon; and at this time the water had already fallen a third part or more in the mouth of the River of Malacca, because those streams and waters of the River run off very strongly; and the ebb and flood run northwest and southeast on the aforementioned Roadstead; for thus the ships turn themselves, namely when it flows, toward the southeast, and when it ebbs, toward the northwest; then it must follow thus:

Regarding the water currents of all the regions from Malacca onwards, along the entire coast and route toward China, Japan, and Nanjing, and at what times and days of the year etc. then follows first, etc.
