| Back | The renegade repeated this to me, and I replied that I was very willing to do so; but he replied that it was not advisable, because if they were left there they would at once raise the country and stir up the city, and lead to the despatch of swift cruisers in pursuit, and our being taken, by sea or land, without any possibility of escape; and that all that could be done was to set them free on the first Christian ground we reached. |

| Front | El renegado me lo dijo; y yo respondí que era muy contento; pero él respondió que no convenía, a causa que, si allí los dejaban apellidarían luego la tierra y alborotarían la ciudad, y serían causa que saliesen a buscallos con algunas fragatas ligeras, y les tomasen la tierra y la mar, de manera que no pudiésemos escaparnos; que lo que se podría hacer era darles libertad en llegando a la primera tierra de cristianos. |
