the name of two islands in the Mediterranean Sea, lying on the coast of Provence in France, five miles from Antibes; that near the coast, called St Margaret, is guarded by invalids, state-prisoners being sent here. It was taken by the English in 1746, but marshal Belleisle retook it in 1747. The other is called St Honorat; and is less than the former, but has a Benedictine abbey.
