  • cur | prev the 17th century a reader (talk | contribs) . . (1,150 bytes) (−90) . . (→ light goes in straight lines and the sun was under the horizon. one of these has to give and it will not be the first)

  • cur | prev 1596 the ice (talk | contribs) . . (480 bytes) (+480) . . (created page; closed on the ship and did not open again. they are building a lodge out of her timbers and will be here until the spring, at seventy-six north)
