"That afternoon our men were for a long time exposed to the knives, muskets and blunderbusses of the enemy . . . All our men fled in utter disorder, each one trying to save himself. . . . Of the Portuguese infantry nearly a whole company of seamen were killed, the dead and wounded amounting to two hundred. The Viceroy twice escaped death in this skirmish.
