"I will vouch for your figures, and no one will question them, for I am a man of honor." "No! All I want " "It is done. Let us say no more about the affair. Señora, I have thought of you every hour; the duties that held me in Nuevo Pueblo were like irksome chains. I was in madness. I would have flown to La Feria but I could not."
I had an audience immediately on my arrival with the Spanish Minister, Senor Mendizabel; I beheld one like myself, the son of a Nuevo Christiano, a Jew of Arragon.
After many disappointments, he died, 20th May 1506, at Valladolid, believing, as far as we can judge, to the day of his death, that what he had discovered was what he set out to seek a westward route to the Indies, though his proud epitaph indicates the contrary: A Castilla y á Leon | To Castille and to Leon Nuevo mondo dió Colon. | A NEW WORLD gave Colon.
