i [he Travels of Fetev Delia Valle,
elfc in Goa, or any of the adjacent place?, namely, in the Illand
tfSalfetie, or fome place there without the City 5 but however,
fuch wherein he may be fubjea to the Vice -Roy of Goa 3 fo that
VenkctapA might be fecure that the faid Banghel would live
peaceably without making new commotions. But in cafe (as he
feem 'd to intend) he would live neither in Fenkrtapa's Country,
" nor in that of Goa, but would continue in Cagnoroto where he
^ was at preient, ( which is a place beyond Mangalor Eaftwards,
/ , and belongs to another fmall but free Prince, alli'd to BangheL
"A- Either, being near to his quondam-Territories, he had be
taken himfelf ) or elfe would remove here and there like a Fu
gitive and Invader, difquieting thefe Countries 5 then Venl^taf*
"was refolv'd not to give him any thing at all. Therefore
let him either accept the above-faid Offer, or never fpeak more
to him, for he would not hear him. That he hath been mov'd
rf* , to make this offer of paying him the faid fumm, by the inftance
' ^ of the Portugals , who had interpos 'd in his behalf by this Em-
baffie: And that for Banghel's aiTurance that he would perform
this, he gave the Ambaffador ("and accordingly he did fo) a
Copy of the Letter containing thefe promifes, which he writ to
the laid King of Bavghel^ to the end the AmbafTador might
fend it to the Vice-Roy,and be a witnefs of what he promis'd and
was to obferve./ He has further told the Ambaflador, that this
King had formerly writ to him that he would come and live in
his Dominion, and repented of what he had done heretofore
through evil counfel^ that yet, for the future, he would be
at his devotion, receiving that Penfion which he had promis'd
Jiim, and the like: Neverthelefshehadnow chang'd hismind,
and refus'd both to come into his Dominion., and to go into that
of Goa : That therefore feeing him fo unconftant, he had
much reafon not to truft him, and, in fhort, would neither truft
him, nor give him any thing fa ving upon the above-faid terms?
and that not for his own fake , but in regard of the inftance
which the Vortngals made for him ; That this was his laft
Anfwer, and that nothing more was to be expefted or hoped
t from him. From they fay, Orders are fent to the Vice-
Roy to re -eftablifh Banghel by all means in his State, and to
make war upon Venk-tafk, unlefs hereftore the fame intirely.
However, being that Country is remote, and in the time that is
Ipent in the going and coming of difpatches, many things may
happen which may render it neceffary for the Vice-Roy in the
preient conjuncture to proceed in fundry particulars differently
from what Orders he receives from Spain, and to have authority
in this bufinefs of Banghel to deliberate of Peace or War, as (hall
to him feem moft expedient, endeavouring to comply no lefs
with the time and the State of things, than the advertifements
from Spain : Therefore the King of Spain, in the Letter which
he wfit to Venkctapk Naieka , making onely general complements
to him, referrs all matter of bufinefs to the Vice-Roy, to guid
