On arriving at Mozambique, which is subject to the King of Quiloa, they came to three islands, which are outside of it; Vasco da Gama sent his pilot in a boat to follow the sambuk and take soundings of the entrance of the port: and taking in the large sails, they entered the port under foresails and mizens, astern of the sambuk; there they found a good bottom and the roadstead sheltered from the sea winds. They saw on shore a large town of houses covered with thatch; so that our men gave great thanks to the Lord for having brought them into port where they could now see houses and people. Having thus arrived, the captain-major went to his brother's ship to tell him to enter the port with the standard at his peak, which he accordingly did: they there conversed, and Vasco da Gama gave him an account of the good words he had heard from the Moor, and all that he had told him. He then bade them take the cafres to the sambuk, and they went away much pleased with pieces of white stuff which were given them, and they brought back the sailors who were on board the sambuk. The cafres went to the shore, where many people collected on the beach to question them, and in a short time they returned to the ship in a canoe, with cocoa-nuts and two hens, which they gave to the captain-major, and begged of him some biscuit and wine to take on shore, which he ordered to be given them, and they returned ashore well satisfied.
