Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Part of an Universal History, Vol. 41: From the Earliest Accounts to the Present Time; Compiled Form Original Authors These, however, were but feeble barriers against the Scots, who bell besides, with small (hips, made frequent descents on South Britain. Again the provincial Britons transmitted to the Roman emperor the mod lamentable complaints of their situation; and Gallio, of Ravenna, was sent to their relief. This general advised them to resign to the Scots all the territory on the north of Adrian's wall; and after giving them directions how to fortify it, the Romans took their final leave of the island. Three independent kings are mentioned as reigning at this time in Britain: viz. Fergus, king of the Scots; Durftus, king of the Picts, a people who inhabited the eastern and midland parts of Scotland; and Dioneth, a British prince. The two first of these are said to have fallen in battle, against the Romans, in 430, about five years before that people evacuated the island. Fergus left behind him three sons, Eugene, Dongard, and Constantius, who, being minors, were put under the guardianship of Graham, father-in-law to Fergus. This nobleman, retaining an implacable enmity to the Britons, brought into the field all the Scots who were capable of bearing arm, and the Britons were so much distrest, that they applied in the most earnest and pathetic manner to AEtius, the Roman general in Gaul, for assistance. He could give them no succour; but, by the famine which raged among their enemies as well as themselves, they obtained a short respite. In these expeditions, the Scots carried with them hooks and grappling-irons, with which they pulled the unhappy Britons from their walls, where they likewise made several breaches.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Part of an Universal History, Vol. 7: From the Earliest Account of Time The inland countries, which are Azein, 77am, Eva, and but little the Lads, as well/as the inland parts of theieft, are very lit mm. Tle known to us at prefent. The belt'meinoirs relating to them beintofe left us by the early travellers who, invited by the ourilhing {late of them, particularly Pegzz, went thi ther for fake of commerce, in the fixteenth century of which number were E doardo Barbofa, Ca/ar Frederick, 651/ par and our Raf Fire/7. We miift, however, except Siam, whofe interior parts the Frenc/a, by their emba ies and relations, brought us acquainted with, towards the \end of the hit century. However, all this information does not amount to much nor are the maritime parts of thofe countries better known to us 2 for although they have been vifited by mer chants, as' well as mi ioners, yet their relations refpect chiefly the inhabitants, and give very little light into either the geo graphy or hiltory of thofe countries. The truth is, that, af ter trying the difpofrtions of the people, both in a religious and mercantile way, there hath been found but little encourage ment either for converfions or commerce and therefore thofe coafis are not much frequented at prefent, by either merchants or divines. Hence it is, that, although revolutions happen very Often in thole countries, we are yet aimoli intire {tran gers to them: and that we find more materials, for political hillory in the ancient voyagers than in the modern. The hell, if not only good ones among the latter, relating to the parts in quellio-n, being thofe of Dampier, and captain Hamilton, who, in his new account of the eaj has given'us the prefent {late of all the countries and i ands, lying between the Cape of good [rope and Yapan.'
