The work in question is a Dutch-language publication from 1706, which is a translation/compilation of João de Barros's Portuguese 'Décadas da Ásia'. While excerpts of Barros's original Portuguese work have been translated into English in various historical collections (such as those by the Hakluyt Society), there is no evidence of an English translation of this specific 1706 Dutch edition. Therefore, this is a first translation from the Dutch source text.
