our selves the Earth 10. Saturd We continued our march and at night took our Lodging where the Poets fancy so many delicacies and advantages of sensual enjoyment but for my part I would not envy their pastime had I had the Poets Bed in Exchange for the Green Bank of a River on which we lay whether perfumed with Roses or Jessamines our tired limbs had not leisure to search or our sences any vacancy for meer weariness from sleeping to perceive 11. Sund. Early in the morning our Indian consorts having a few small Canoes some of our Men embarked and going down the River met with several inconveniences both Natural and Artificial As first great falls and then the Spaniards throwing great T●ees cross the Rivers by which we lost several of our Canoes the rest of our Men marching by Land to the place where the Emperour had ordered our Rendezvouz 12. Mund. This day the remainder of our Men embarked at a place where the Emperour had provided more Canoes and had a pleasant Voyage About four in the afternoon we arrived at the appointed place but not finding our fellow Souldiers there who embarked the day before us as we expected it created in us a jealousie that the Indians had thus divided us the better to execute some treachery by the assistance of the Spaniard the Emperor perceiving by our Caballing and Whispering among our selves that we had some cause of dissatisfaction Commanded a Canoe to row up another arm of the River in search of our Men and meeting two Canoes with some of them they returned with all expedition to us and informed us of their safety and that they had been honourably treated by the Indians and would be with us the next morning so here we staid for them this night 13. Tuesd. This day all our party met which not a little confirmed us in the good opinion we had of the Indians fidelity we staid here all day to rest our selves and fit our Arms and Necessaries for our next days proceedings the Emperor acquainting us we were near the Town which we were glad to hear our tedious march put us quite out of fancy of walking to take the Air any more now we were fallen so low down the River the Emperour and the King had provided Canoes c. enough for us all 14. Wedn. We rose with the day and all embarked also the Emperour and King with us the Emperour was Cloathed with a loose Robe or Mantle of pure Gold which was extraordinary Splendid and Rich. The King was in a White Cotton Coat fringed round the bottom about his Neck a Belt of Tygers Teeth and a Hat of pure Gold with a Ring and a Plate like a Cockle Shell hanging at it of Gold in his Nose which is the Fashion in this Country for the people of Quality and which for what I could perceive was the only distinction We rested not this day or night and at two in the morning we landed within two miles of Santa Maria and shrowded our selves in the Woods till day light 15. Thursd. About six this morning we attacqued the place and carried it with little difficulty it being a Stockadoe Fort and a small Town o● Thatched Houses This Fort of Santa Maria was kept by the Spaniards for the conveniency of gathering Dust-Gold which the River affords plenty of and the poor Natives are the Drudges to gather it for them We designed to make no further progress being told there was a sufficient quantity of Gold-dust at this place to enrich us all but the wary Spaniards had carried it away two days before as thinking a conveyance of their own contriving safer than ours though not so well guarded as it would have been by us 17. Saturd Disappointment is an incentive to Revenge and good Resolution the commander of Success these being now our cheifest directors we fitted our Canoes and got what Provisions we could being loth to return empty handed and at the tide of Ebb designed to fall down to see what fate would afford in the Southern Ocean At this place it flows near two fathom perpendicular The River is else very showly and full of Banks which are dry at low Water About twelve in the night we came to a Watering place where we got drink the River being Salt here we staid till morning filling Water it being very dark and the mouth of the River wide one branch of it coming from the Golden Mines but having no Chymist to refine the Ore we thought it best to go look for it where it was to be had with the King of Spains Arms on it for we like other Children loved Pictures strangely 18. Sund.
