He writes that they gave him "parrots, cotton thread in balls, spears, and many other trifles which would be tedious to write down, and they gave all for anything that was given to them. And when I was attentive and laboured to know if they had gold, and I saw that some of them wore a small piece hanging from a hole which they have in the nose and from signs I was able to understand that going to the south, there was a king who had large vessels of it and possessed much gold. I endeavored to make them go there."
