These Men Haue No Beards At All, For We Saw Them Carie A Certaine Iron Instrument In Their Hands Wherewith, If Any Haires Growe Vpon Their Chinne, They Presently Plucke Them Out.

They are also very deformed.

From thence the Tartars army returned to their owne home.

Qualiter a montibus Caspijs, et ab hommibus subterraneis repulsi sunt. Cap. 12.

[Sidenote: Alia Chingis expeditio.]

Chingischam etiam illo tempore, quo dimisit alios exercitus contra Orientem, per terram Kergis cum cxpeditione perrexit, quos tamen tunc bello non vicit et vt nobis dicebatur, ibidem vsque ad montes Caspios peruenit. At illi montes in ea parte, ad quam applicauerunt, de lapide Adamantino sunt: ideoque sagittas et arma ferrea illorum ad se traxerunt. Homines autem inter Caspios montes conclusi clamorem exercitus, vt creditur, audientes, montem frangere coeperunt, et cum alio tempore post decem annos redirent Tartari, montem confractum inuenerunt. Cumque ad illos accedere attentassent, minime potuerunt: quia nubes quadam erat posita ante ipsos, vltra quam ire nullatenus poterant. Omnino quippe visum amittebant, statim vt ad illam perueniebant. [Marginal note: Vide an Hamsem regionem dicat de qua Haythonus cap. 10.] Illi autem ex aduerso credentes, quod Tartari ad illos accedere formidarent, insultum contra eos fecerunt, sed statim vt peruenerunt ad nubem propter causam pradictam, procedere non potuerunt. Ac vero antequam ad montes pradictos peruenirent Tartari, plusquam per mensem per vastam solitudinem transierunt, et inde procedentes adhuc contra Orientem, plusquam per mensem per magnum desertum perrexerunt. Itaque peruenerunt ad quandam terram, in qua vias quidem tritas videbant, sed neminem inuenire poterant.
