But ... I conceive great hope that the time approacheth and now is that we of England may share and part stakes ... in part of America and other regions as yet undiscovered "Yea, if we would behold with the eye of pity how all our prisons are pestered and filled with able men to serve their country, which for small robberies are daily hanged up in great numbers, ... we would hasten ... the deducting [ conveying] of some colonies of our superfluous people into these temperate and fertile parts of America, which being within six weeks' sailing of England, are yet unpossessed by any Christians, and seem to offer themselves unto us, stretching nearer unto Her Majesty's dominions than to other part of Europe." -Richard Hakluyt, English writer, Divers Voyages Touching the Discovery of America and the Islands Adjacent, 1582 2.
