many_o spaniard_n make_v several_a voyage_n and_o further_a discovery_n in_o america_n bring_v to_o spain_n what_o gold_n and_o silver_n they_o find_v among_o the_o native_n of_o those_o country_n who_o have_v great_a quantity_n of_o gold_n than_o silver_n among_o they_o in_o those_o time_n because_o the_o gold_n lie_v in_o the_o soil_n or_o superficial_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o
