There was in ancient time a nation of the
Franques, or French that were verie cunning
shipwrights, and much exercies in that art, if
we shall beleeue Latinus, Pacatus, Sidonius
Apollinaris, & Beatus Renanus. And it semed
good to that nation, that in what region so e-
uer they chose them a place to build them a
cittie and to dwell in, the portrature or sim-
bole of a goodly great shippe should be dedi-
cate to the honor of their shippes, and anti-
quitie. The which thing Lutetia in Paris
which is incomparable by that famous gift,
hath chalenged to it selfe by ancient name
euen to this day. Neither is it any absurditie
to thinke that they borrowed the same cu-
stome of the Gepides which also vsed the
same before, and were verie famous thorow
all the Germaine Ocean: The Troian nati-
on perchance comming thither from their
long voyage on the sea, after the subuersion
of Troy, from whom it is thought of the
most part, the nobilitie of France tooke
their beginning and originall.
