rainy_a there_o as_o the_o south_n wind_n be_v on_o this_o side_n but_o contrariwise_o it_o rain_v when_o as_o the_o south_n wind_n blow_v there_o as_o we_o see_v in_o all_o the_o sierre_n or_o

which_o they_o call_v low_a wind_n to_o have_v their_o course_n at_o any_o season_n of_o the_o year_n the_o other_o wonder_n be_v that_o these_o easterly_a wind_n never_o cease_v to_o blow_v and_o

unto_o we_o or_o that_o ancient_a writer_n have_v make_v mention_n of_o 9_o the_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v so_o great_a abundance_n of_o metal_n at_o the_o indies_n especial_o at_o the_o west_n of_o peru_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v the_o will_n of_o the_o creator_n who_o have_v impart_v his_o gift_n as_o it_o please_v he_o but_o come_v to_o a_o natural_a and_o philosophical_a reason_n it_o be_v very_o true_a which_o philon_n a_o wise_a man_n write_v say_v that_o gold_n silver_n and_o metal_n grow_v natural_o in_o land_n that_o be_v most_o barren_a and_o unfruitful_a and_o we_o see_v that_o in_o land_n of_o good_a temperature_n the_o which_o be_v fertile_a with_o grass_n and_o fruit_n there_o be_v seldom_o find_v any_o mine_n for_o that_o nature_n be_v content_v to_o give_v they_o vigour_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n more_o necessary_a for_o the_o preservation_n and_o maintenance_n of_o the_o life_n of_o beast_n and_o man_n and_o contrariwise_o to_o land_n that_o be_v very_o rough_a dry_a and_o barren_a as_o in_o the_o high_a mountain_n and_o inaccessible_a rock_n of_o a_o rough_a temper_n they_o find_v mine_n of_o silver_n of_o quicksilver_n and_o of_o gold_n and_o all_o those_o riches_n which_o be_v come_v into_o spain_n since_o the_o west_n indies_n be_v discover_v have_v be_v draw_v out_o of_o such_o place_n which_o be_v rough_a and_o full_a bare_a and_o fruitless_a yet_o the_o taste_n of_o this_o money_n make_v these_o place_n please_v and_o agreeable_a yea_o well_o inhabit_v with_o number_n of_o people_n and_o although_o there_o be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v many_o mine_n of_o all_o kind_n of_o metal_n as_o at_o the_o indies_n yet_o they_o use_v none_o but_o those_o of_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o as_o much_o quicksilver_n as_o be_v necessary_a to_o refine_v their_o gold_n and_o silver_n they_o carry_v iron_n thither_o from_o spain_n and_o china_n as_o for_o copper_n the_o indian_n have_v draw_v of_o it_o and_o use_v it_o for_o their_o arm_n the_o which_o be_v not_o usual_o of_o iron_n but_o of_o copper_n since_o the_o spaniard_n possess_v the_o indies_n they_o have_v draw_v very_o little_a neither_o do_v they_o take_v the_o pain_n to_o seek_v out_o these_o mine_n although_o there_o be_v many_o busy_v themselves_o in_o the_o search_n of_o rich_a and_o more_o precious_a metal_n wherein_o they_o spend_v their_o time_n and_o labour_n they_o use_v no_o other_o metal_n as_o copper_n and_o iron_n but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v send_v they_o from_o spain_n or_o that_o which_o remain_v of_o the_o refine_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n we_o find_v not_o that_o the_o indian_n in_o former_a time_n use_v gold_n silver_n or_o any_o other_o metal_n for_o money_n and_o for_o the_o price_n of_o thing_n but_o only_o for_o ornament_n etc._n as_o have_v be_v say_v whereof_o there_o be_v great_a quantity_n in_o their_o temple_n palace_n and_o tomb_n with_o a_o thousand_o kind_n of_o vessel_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n which_o they_o have_v they_o use_v no_o gold_n nor_o silver_n to_o traffic_v or_o buy_v withal_o but_o do_v change_n and_o truck_v one_o thing_n for_o another_o as_o homer_n and_o pliny_n report_n of_o the_o ancient_n 3._o they_o have_v some_o other_o thing_n of_o great_a esteem_n which_o go_v currant_n among_o they_o for_o price_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o coin_n and_o unto_o this_o day_n this_o custom_n continue_v among_o the_o indian_n as_o in_o the_o province_n of_o mexico_n in_o stead_n of_o money_n they_o use_v cacao_n which_o be_v a_o small_a fruit_n and_o therewith_o buy_v what_o they_o will_n in_o peru_n they_o use_v coca_n to_o the_o same_o end_n the_o which_o be_v a_o leaf_n the_o indian_n esteem_v much_o as_o in_o paraguay_n they_o have_v stamp_n of_o iron_n for_o coin_n and_o cotton_n weave_v in_o saint_n croix_n of_o the_o sierre_n final_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o indian_n traffic_n and_o their_o buy_n and_o sell_v be_v to_o exchange_v and_o give_v thing_n for_o thing_n and_o although_o there_o be_v great_a mart_n and_o famous_a fair_n yet_o have_v they_o no_o need_n of_o money_n nor_o of_o broker_n for_o that_o every_o one_o have_v learn_v what_o he_o be_v to_o give_v in_o exchange_n for_o every_o kind_n of_o merchandise_n since_o the_o spaniard_n enter_v the_o indian_n have_v use_v gold_n and_o silver_n to_o buy_v withal_o and_o in_o the_o begin_n there_o be_v no_o
