Penagundim,¹ and of Codegaral² of Cidaota.³ All these large cities border on the kingdom of Oria, and some of them with Cape Comorin (*cabo de Comarỹ*).

He is obliged to serve with twenty-five thousand⁴ foot, fifteen hundred horse, and forty elephants, and pays each year to the King three hundred thousand *pardaos*.
