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 it is less than the former, but has a Benedictine abbey.
