Captain Cook’s Journal During the First Voyage Round the World

CHAPTER 5
32/166

Between them the Shore forms a Bay, wherein lies Poverty Bay, 4 Leagues from the former and 8 Leagues from the Latter.

From Gable end Foreland the land trends North by East as far as we could see.

The land from Poverty Bay to this place is of a moderate but very unequal height, distinguished by Hills and Vallies that are Cover'd with woods.

We saw, as we run along shore, several Villages, cultivated lands, and some of the Natives.

In the evening some Canoes came off to the Ship, and one Man came on board to whom we gave a few Trifles and then sent him away.
