They were all immediately killed, while the fusta went about destroying
the hapless wretches who were in the water.  A number also who had taken
refuge on the island were made prisoners, not one escaping.  The boats
and fusta, having thus finished the work, returned to the ships.  The
Portuguese then selected from among the captives twelve of the
strongest-looking men, to work the pumps and do other service, while the

Moorish rulers of these coasts, bombarded it as he sailed by.  He then
proceeded, without stopping, until he came off another city called Pate,
from which eight large zambuks came out to attack him.  A few broadsides
drove them away, and he sailed on until he reached Melinda.

Owing to calms, the voyage lasted nearly four months during which, from
the want of fresh provisions, scurvy, scarcely before known, attacked
the crews.  Ulcers broke out on their arms and legs, and their gums
became swollen and rotten, so that thirty men died, and others could
hardly move about.  Some of the pilots also mutinied, and wanted to put
