A few days after the death of Reys Hamed, when the King of Ormuz reflected how much it was owing to the great Afonso Dalboquerque that he had been rescued from the hands of that tyrant, he determined to pay him another visit, and brought with him as a present several pieces of gold ore, and rich objects of native manufacture, to give to him and his captains, and sent word to him by Reys Nordim that he was very desirous of seeing him, and hoped that a day for an interview might be arranged; for on the former occasion when he visited the fortress there had been no time or opportunity of conversation between them, because of the events which had then arisen. Afonso Dalboquerque replied that it was a great favour and honour which he was showing him in thus desiring to visit him; but as it was his wish, let him come and pay him a visit in the building where he had been delivered from the power of the traitor. Reys Nordim returned with this reply, carrying with him to the king a sword richly ornamented with gold, a present from Afonso Dalboquerque.
