quantity of salt fish both very large and good, in which they do great trade.· And they L VB V
live on rice,¹ of which there is much, and on flesh and fish, of which there is enough, and G G
on milk, for they have no other corn at all but rice. They all go quite naked both P Z VB
men and women, only covered in front & behind in the manner and in the custom of the
other idolater Indians. Moreover I tell you that many ships come to this island
with many merchants and with many wares which they sell in this island, and they
carry away again with them of the things which are in the island, of which they make Z
great gain and profit. And you may know that all the ships and the merchants which Z
wish to go to Aden come to this island. This archbishop of this island has nothing L
to do with the Apostle of Rome, but I tell you that he is subject to another Arch- VB
bishop² who lives at the city of Baudac. And this Archbishop of Baudac sends this R
Archbishop of³ this island, or those of the island choose him and the Catholicus confirms Z
him; and he also sends all the prelates, archbishops, bishops, & clergy whatever into many L
parts of the world over there even as the Apostle of Rome does here. [91a] And all FB FB
these clergy and prelates are not obedient to the Church of Rome but they are all

Christians who are there know that all those things are robbed from idolaters and
from Saracens and not from Christians, and for this reason the Christians hold that VB
they can lawfully buy them all·gladly. And again you may know that if the Arch- Z VA
bishop of this island of Scotra dies it is the rule that the next come from Baudac, Z
nor otherwise would they ever have Archbishop there; or if they themselves choose him,
that he be confirmed in Baudac. Moreover I tell you that the Christians of this island
are the best & the most wise necromancers & charmers that are to be found in the world; L VB Z
though it is true that the Archbishop does not wish them to do those enchantments
and forbids as much as he can and chastises and admonishes them for it, & says that it Z TA
is sin. But it avails nothing, because they say that their ancestors did them of old
and therefore they say that they wish to do them still. And the Archbishop can
do no more than those are willing, so he bears with it so far, since he can do no
other,⁴ nor can know who has done them, and though he excommunicates them yet it is of no Z
