Roses,
G. and a sea-tenche nayante proper.
The little parish called Temple, skirteth this hundred, on the waste
side thereof: a place, exempted from the Bishops iurisdiction,
as once appertayning to the Templers, but not so from disorder:
for if common report communicate with truth, many a bad mariage
bargaine is there yerely slubbred vp.
Hundred of West.
WIth Trig Hundred on the South side, confineth that of West,
but taketh his name from the relation which it beareth to that
of East: the circuit thereof is not so large, as fruitfull.
In entring the same, wee will first pitch at the Looes, two seuerall
Corporations, distinguished by the addition of East and West,
abutting vpon a nauigable creek, and ioyned by a faire bridge of
many arches. They tooke that name from a fresh riuer, which there
payeth his tribute to the sea: and the riuer (as I coniecture)
from his low passage, betweene steepe coasting hils: for Loo,
and lowe, after the Cornish pronunciation, doe little differ.
