Yvre

This location is mentioned in the following paragraphs:

(§38) Immediately before Yvre there runs a small river whose water would scarcely flow above your shoes these days, but the banks are so deep - fully 10 feet - that either the water has been continually sweeping the loose sand away with it or, as I believe more likely, the river itself has shrunk.

(§40) YVRE, 13 1/2 miles. Here I saw small kid-goats that, below the chin where the throat starts, had 2 wart-like growths as some pigs have. These were an inch long, covered with sparse hairs and as thick as the teat of a suckling sow; and there were also 2 teats on the scrotum. But I do not know why they are like that. The cloud had been increasing all day and we had occasionally been threatened by a light scatter of rain. It now began to rain so hard that I was compelled to remain here for a couple of hours.
