Vasilkoff is within a day's Journey from Kioff, andIt stands
on the Declivity of a Hill, and is the last Town belonging
to Russia in that Part — The Place is but small though
well fortified, and provided with a Strong Garrison &c
after about an hour's Ride, you come to the Borders
of Poland, where is an Out Post, and a Strong
Guard of Russian Soldiers. This Place is called
Zastave, very necessary in time of war. The
Territory of Poland is divided here from That of
Russia by a deep Ditch drawn across the Middle
of a Spacious Plain, along which is to be
seen neither House nor Tree till you come
to Belozerkoff the first Town belonging to
Poland in that Part.
