----- 菲律宾群岛政府
First named the Islands Of St. Lazarus by Magellan, they were later christened Felipinas by one of the later Spanish voyagers, Ruy Lopez de Villalobos, in honor of our fortunate Prince — Prince of Austria, later King Philip II. This was soon used in the ordinary way, as by Urdaneta and Legaspi in 1567, las islas Filipinas — the Philippine Islands. Morga, writing in 1609, stated that they are properly called 'felipinas' a — Philippines.
