There, If Neede Require, He May Fitly Winter And Refresh Himselfe And His, And Seeke All Things Which He Shall Stand In Need Of:

Howbeit, he hopeth that hee shall reach to Cathaya that very Sommer, vnlesse he be hindered by great abundance of Ice at the mouth of the riuer of Ob, which is sometimes more, and sometimes lesse. If it so fall out, he then purposeth to returne to Pechora, and there to Winter: or if he cannot doe so neither, then hee meaneth to returne to the riuer of Dwina, whither he will reach in good time enough, and so the next Spring following to proceed on his voyage.

I would this Oliuer were better seen in Cosmographie, it would greatly further his experience, which doubtlesse is very great.
