Indi, gens populosa cultoribus et finibus maxima, procul a nobis ad orientem siti, prope oceani reflexus et solis exortus, primis sideribus, ultimis terris, super Aegyptios eruditos et Iudaeos superstitiosos et Nabataeos mercatores et fluxos vestium Arsacidas et frugum pauperes Ityraeos et odorum divites Arabas'eorum igitur Indorum non aeque miror eboris strues et piperis messes et cinnami merces et ferri temperacula et argenti metalla et auri fluenta, nec quod Ganges apud eos unus omnium amnium maximus Eois regnator aquis in flumina centum discurrit, centum valles illi oraque centum, oceanique fretis centeno iungitur amni,.
The people of India, a land of many inhabitants and huge extent, are situated far from us to the east, near to where the Ocean ebbs and the sun rises, where the stars begin and the land ends, beyond the learned Egyptians, the superstitious Jews, the mercantile Nabataeans, the Arsacids with their flowing robes, the Ituraeans poor in crops, the Arabs rich in spices'well, among the possessions of these Indians I do not so much admire their heaps of ivory, their harvests of pepper, their cargoes of cinnamon, their iron foundries, their silver mines, their gold-bearing rivers, nor the fact that their Ganges, that greatest of all rivers,  Ruler of the eastern waters, he divides into a hundred rivers, A hundred valleys he has and a hundred mouths, With a hundredfold stream he meets Oceans waters.
