From p. 44: "Nunc venio ad experientiam praedictam, Tolleti demonstratam a duobus Graecis, qui Cacabo magnae amplitudinis accepto, orificio inverso, funibus in aere pendente, tabem & asseres in medio concavi Cacabi affigunt, ...

[The beam and poles formed seats for the divers.]) The German Jesuit scientist Gaspar Schott (1608–1666) quoted Taisnier's account and mentioned that Taisnier had witnessed the demonstration in 1538.

The Submarine service page on the official website of the Royal Navy refers to "These powerful boats"[1], and in at a speech in Washington, Adm. Sir Philip Jones announced "that the name Dreadnought will return as lead boat and class name" for Britain's latest ballistic missile submarines.[2]
