I entertained them as I was able, to theyr Content, but kept as much State in myne owne house as was vsed towardes me by others; but wee exchanged many complements, Mochrebchan excusing himselfe of all thinges past, professing he knewe not the English, but that now he was theyr seruant. So wee parted very good frendes; and I gaue him at his goeing six glasses guilt. March 6. — The Prince sent his principall officer to Adsmere to giue me Content, fearing I would Complaine, which hee desiered mee to forbeare and that I should haue satisfaction in my desiers, Justice for what was passed, and amendes in the future. Soe hee propounded three other articles to me, leauing out that of the Portugall, and sent them in Persian desiring mee to signe those to his Master and I should haue the firmaen deliuered vpon receipt of yt. When I had gott them translated, though in substance there was nothing which I might not assent vnto, they beeing rather friuolous then dangerous for mee or materiall for the Prince, yet in the woording and forme ther was somthing I misliked, wherin they might if they had so much cunning by hard construction bynd mee to some inconvenience, and restraine the merchants of full liberty. - [Previous: 14.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.roe-embassy~en-foster.14.1.1) - [Next: 14.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.roe-embassy~en-foster.14.1.3) - [Up: 14.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.roe-embassy~en-foster.14.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.roe-embassy~en-foster.14.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.roe-embassy~en-foster.14.1.2) · Pramāṇa
