Many other marvels be in that city and in
the country thereabout, that were too long to tell you.
From that city go men by the country a six journeys to another city
that men clepe Chilenfo, of the which city the walls be twenty mile
about. In that city be sixty bridges of stone, so fair that no man
may see fairer. In that city was the first siege of the King of
Mancy, for it is a fair and plenteous of all goods.
After, pass men overthwart a great river that men clepe Dalay. And
that is the greatest river of fresh water that is in the world.
For there, as it is most narrow, it is more than four mile of
breadth. And then enter men again into the land of the great Chan.
That river goeth through the land of Pigmies, where that the folk
be of little stature, that be but three span long, and they be
right fair and gentle, after their quantities, both the men and the
women. And they marry them when they be half year of age and get
children.
