ABSTRACT

Christians are very brave and valiant men.” And truly I have found myself in some battles in my time, but I never saw any men more brave than these Portuguese. The next day after, we returned to our Viceroy, who was at Cuccin. I leave you to imagine how great was the joy of the Vice­ roy and of the king of Cuccin, who is a true friend o f the king of Portugal, on seeing us return victorious.1
