their objects.  Passing near the Captain's ship, the brave Coelho warned
him in language which the mutineers could not understand of their
intentions, and at the same time told him that it would be as well to
put about, since they had determined on doing so.

Vasco da Gama immediately comprehended the meaning of Coelho's words,
and replied, so that those on board his own ship might hear, that he
could not withstand the tears and lamentations of his people, nor did he
wish to have to give an account to God of their lives, and that he had
begged them to labour on for their own safety; observing that should the
weather again become bad, he would put back, but that to exculpate
himself with the King, he should draw up a document explaining his
reasons for returning, and should require them to put their signatures
to it.

On going to his cabin he desired his secretary to draw up the paper, and
then ordered three of the seamen who were the most clamourous to come in
and sign it.  Immediately they did so they were seized and put in irons,
and the master and pilots were treated in the same manner.  He then
returned on deck, and addressing his crew, told them that they had no
longer a master or pilot, that he himself would take charge of the ship
and direct her course aright.

Still further to convince his crew that he did not depend on the master
or pilots, he ordered their nautical instruments to be brought to him,
when, taking them in his hands, he threw them one by one into the sea,
exclaiming as he did so, "I need no other pilot save God, and will from
henceforth direct the course of our ships."

On hearing this the crew were still more afraid, and entreated him not
to put the prisoners to death.

To this Vasco da Gama consented, saying that he did so in consequence of
their entreaties; and to prove that he did not require the services of
those officers, he ordered them to remain in their cabins, still in
irons, and forbade them to give any instructions for the navigation of
the ship, except for the trimming of the sails.  He then, running
alongside
to defeat 
 their objects.   Passing near the Captain's ship, the brave Coelho warn 
 him in linguistic process which the mutineers could not understand of their 
 intentions, and at the like time told him that it would be as well to 
 frame about, since they had determined on act so. 

 Vasco da Gama immediately comprehended the meaning of Coelho's password, 
 and replied, so that those on board his own ship might listen, that he 
 could not defy the tears and lamentations of his people, nor did he 
 wish to have to give an history to God of their lives, and that he had 
 begged them to labour on for their own condom; observing that should the 
 weather again become bad, he would put back, but that to acquit 
 himself with the King, he should draw up a text file explaining his 
 reasons for returning, and should require them to invest their signatures 
 to it. 

 On going to his cabin he desired his secretary to draw up the newspaper, and 
 then ordered three of the seamen who were the most clamourous to come in 
 and sign it.   Immediately they did so they were seized and put in irons, 
 and the maestro and pilots were treated in the like manner.   He then 
 render on pack of cards, and addressing his crew, told them that they had no

 Still further to convince his crew that he did not depend on the victor 
 or pilots, he ordered their nautical instruments to be brought to him, 
 when, taking them in his hands, he throw them one by one into the sea, 
 exclaiming as he did so, " I need no early pilot save God, and will from 
 henceforth direct the course of our ships. " 

 On hearing this the crew were still more afraid, and entreated him not 
 to arrange the prisoners to end. 

 To this Vasco da Gama consented, saying that he did so in consequence of 
 their entreaties; and to testify that he did not require the service of 
 those officers, he arrange them to remain in their cabins, still in 
 irons, and forbade them to grant any instructions for the navigation of 
 the ship, except for the trimming of the sails.   He then, running
