¶ Seguitan poi vaticia e chirisonda
Di cento in cento miglia inver levante
Segondo illico e poi trabisonda
E quivi muove un archo revoltante
In dirimpecto la ove peçionda
Che da l'un capo a l'altro distante
Ducencinquanta miglia e a girare
Piu cento miglia sarebbeno a fare

¶ Lovati e fascio due fiumi piu su
Fra terra vengon per la circassia
E piu a levante il mar di bachu
E la cita d'organci e Samachia
E a tornar per dicto litto in giu
Savastopoli trovi in quella via
E poi peççonda e poi trecento miglia
Dove 'l canal de lata si piglia

¶ Il dicto litto torna inver ponente
Il canal dicto verso tramontana
Poi seguon ducento miglia ritamente
In verso greco e trovasi la tana
E donde ci movemo primamente
Questa -e- la piu lunga e la piu strana
Dove si navichi e finissi qui
L'asia magiore al fiume tanai.

¶ Deo gratias amen.
