FOOTNOTES:

[A] In Scandinavian mythology, the three fates, past, present, and future.

[B] Pico is a very high mountain on one of the Azores, from which the island derives its name.

[C] It is said that the inhabitants of the Azores are much addicted to gallantry.

[D] That usually reliable, though sometimes facetious historian, Diedrich Knickerbocker, informs us that Dutch traders, bartering for furs among the Indians, two or three centuries ago, were wont to tell them that a Dutchman’s foot invariably weighed a pound, thus taking in the red man’s peltry—and the Indian into the bargain!
