Our men having left Bombaza, they ran along the coast with much vigilance, because they did not trust to the pilot whom they had got in irons, and proceeding on their voyage, one afternoon they sighted two sambuks, of which they only captured one, for the other got so close in to shore that the ships could not reach it, until it found a very narrow river, into which it put in. The other, which was taken, was laden with ivory, and eighty men were captured in it. Its captain was a man of Dias, who was taking thither his wife, a very pretty woman, with rich jewels and money in a chest, and four women in her service. The captain-major distributed amongst the ships, only the people who remained in the sambuk, into which he ordered ten Portuguese to be put, whom he prohibited from moving anything, and bade them watch well by night, so as not to part company from the ships. They searched the sambuk and did not find any arms in it. So they went on until they arrived at Melinde, which is on the open coast. As the city was a great one, of noble buildings, and surrounded by walls, and placed immediately on the shore, it made an imposing appearance, and at the sight of it our men experienced great delight, and gave great praise to the Lord, who had brought them to such a country.
