Between 1628 and 1634, eighty French ships were captured, worth, according to the reïses' valuation, 4,752,000 livres, together with 1,331 slaves. The King of France must have regretted even the days when Barbarossa wintered at Toulon, so great was the plague of the sea-rovers and apparently so hopeless the attempt to put them down. III., ch. iv., p. 273-5, 280.
