Summary
How Diogo Fernandez de Béja and James Teixeira reached Madoval, and the reception which they experienced there; and what passed with Çodamacão, Chief Alguazil of the King of Cambay, in reference to dispatching them.
Diogo Fernandez and James Teixeira having set out from Champanel, before they drew near to the city of Madoval, where the king was, sent word to Meacamadim, who was occupied in arranging the places for their lodging, to go forward to Çodamacão, Chief Alguazil, and acquaint him of their coming; and he sent word back telling them to lodge on that day in a vegetable garden which belonged to him, just outside the city. And on the following day, in the morning,'he sent one of the principal men of his household, a Turk by birth, with thirty attendants mounted on horses, and a large number of footmen, furnished with many trumpets and horns, to accompany them by way of ceremony to a banquet in his house; and when all had arrived at the door of his courtyard, Melique Coadragui, the son of Desturcão, who was one of the king's pages, came out to receive them, and there they alighted and entered into a large chamber where Çodamacão was waiting in expectation of them, and by him they were received with great cordiality and honour, and there forthwith Diogo Fernandez presented to him the present which he had brought for him, giving him at the same time a letter from Afonso Dalboquerque.
