  • On landing, we could see the tracks of some barefooted people, who had been there not long before, for their foe was still burning; yet we could see no people, nor any living creature, except a fowl called oxbird, being a grey sea-bird, in colour like a _snipe_, but different in the beak. —  A General History and Collection of Voyages and Travels — Volume 08
