La traduction anglaise parut à Londres en 1597 sous le titre (3) de Relation du royaume de Congo, région d'afrique, et des pays dont il est environné. Ces pays renfermant presque la moitié de l'afrique doivent avoir été décrits par Lopez sur le témoi guage d'autrui; car il ne parait pas qu'il eût pris lui - même la peine de les parcourir. Il manque un Indexà l'ouvrage italien, défaut que n'a point la traduction latine. Sa division est en deux Livres, dont le premier contient quatorze Chapitres.
