[Footnote 11: In the year 1212, the doge Peter Zani sent a
colony to Candia, drawn from every quarter of Venice. But in
their savage manners and frequent rebellions, the Candiots
may be compared to the Corsicans under the yoke of Genoa;
and when I compare the accounts of Belon and Tournefort, I
cannot discern much difference between the Venetian and the
Turkish island.]
