We left Masulipatam on the 20th of June at 5 p.m., and slept at a garden — which is, as I have said, only half a league from the town, and belongs to the Dutch, the chief of whom accompanied us, and we amused ourselves pretty well during a good part of the night. The following day being the 21st, after having taken leave of the Dutch we travelled 3 leagues, and slept at a place called Nilmol. On the 22d \[July\] we travelled 6 leagues to-Woupiir, another village, and before arriving there we crossed a river on a raft. On the 23d \[July\], after a march of six hours, we halted at Patemet, which is but a poor village, and on account of the rains we were obliged to remain there on the 24th, 25th, and 26th. - [Previous: 38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.tavernier~en-ball.38) - [Next: 39.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.tavernier~en-ball.39.1.2) - [Up: 39.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.tavernier~en-ball.39.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.tavernier~en-ball.39.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.tavernier~en-ball.39.1.1) · Pramāṇa
