Discovery of America by Madoc

In reference to the discovery of America by Madoc, pp. 7. 12. 25. 57., it may amuse your readers to be informed that Seneca shadows forth such a discovery:— "Venient annis sæcula seris Quibus Oceanus vincula rerum Laxet, et ingens pateat tellus, Ichthysque novos deteget orbes; Nec sit terris ultima Thule." *Medea*, act ii, ad finem, v. 375. "A vaticination," says the commentator, "of the Spanish discovery of America." It is certainly a curious passage.
