Pisidia

Defens. (4) 6. 83. A district of southern Asia Minor. Pitsligo. See Pettislego. Plesco (Vobsco). Moscovia (1) 8. 476 (twice); (4) 8. 488, 491. Pskof, a city of northwestern Ru ia near the lake of the same name. Vobsco is another form of the name, used in the time of Milton. {Early Voyages to Ru ia, Hakluyt Soc, p. cxliv.) Since Milton, in a list of cities, gives both forms, with “Smolensko” intervening, he seems to have thought them the names of distinct cities. He was not alone in this error, for Heylyn, in his Cosmography, describes the town once as Pskow, and again as Vobsco. Milton was perhaps misled by his sources Yet in Horsey’s Observations, to which he {e. g., Hak. 1. 252, 480). refers in Moscovia (4) 8. 492, and which he apparently had read, we find ” Plescoue (alias Vobsco).” Plimouth. { Pilgrimage, ed. 1626, p. 974.) Contra Hisp. 7. 356. Plymouth, a seaport of Devons hire, England. Plymouth. See Plimouth. 249
