Summary
How Reys Nordini sent, through Alexandre de Ataide the interpreter, an account of the intrigue of Reys Hamed, and of what passed thereupon.
When all these things were passed, the great Afonso Dalboquerque sent a message to Reys Nordim, through Alexandre de Ataide the interpreter, saying he had learned that Reys Hamed, his nephew, was actually in possession of the king's palace, and of all his treasures, and held the king himself as it were in captivity; therefore he begged him earnestly to send word secretly as to the exact condition in which affairs stood. Reys Nordim, although out of fear of his nephew he dared not open his mouth, nevertheless, being, as it were, disconcerted at having his honour involved in the question, sent word to Afonso Dalboquerque, that after King Ceifadim was dead he had set up this king who was now reigning, and out of a desire for the safety of his estate he had placed over all the palace, from the gates inwards, his nephew Reys Hamed and his two brothers; and because he was left, as it were, chief of the household of the late king, after the death of Cogeatar, he was carrying on the government, for the present king was but a youth; and after one year had elapsed since he had come to power, Reys Hamed had begged the king to bestow on him the post of the government which had been held by Cogeatar, as well as his houses which he used to inhabit;
