⁷ Vida de J. deCastro, 264-269. Dábhol is mentioned in the Lusiad, Book X., but the lines are not very striking. In Ogilby's English Atlas published about 1670, there is an engraving of Dábhol, made apparently from a description of the place, for the natural features of this engraving are certainly very little like the reality. It shows wall all round the sea and river sides, and two or three large round buildings just inside the wall, which may be meant either for part of the fortifications or for mosques.
