Their signs of friendship are either a great truncheon, or bough of a tree full of leaves, put on their heads, often striking their heads with their hands.
The next day, having a fresh gale of wind, we got under a high island, about four or five leagues round, very woody, and full of plantations upon the sides of the hills; and in the bays, by the waterside, are abundance of cocoa-nut trees.

It lies in the latitude of 3 degrees 25 minutes south, and meridian distance from Cape Mabo 1,316 miles.

On the south-east part of it are three or four other small woody islands, one high and peaked, the others low and flat, all bedecked with cocoa-nut trees and other wood.

On the north there is another island of an indifferent height and of a somewhat larger circumference than the great high island last mentioned.

We passed between this and the high island.
The high island is called in the Dutch drafts Anthony Cave's Island.
