And, on the other hand, is it not equally true that the English seamen of the Pedro Primiero were so disheartened and disgusted with the long delay which in their case had occurred, and the manifest bad faith which had been evinced, that by far the greater part of them actually abandoned the ship?
In order to enforce the terms proffered, we entered the river never before navigated by a line-of-battle ship and anchored the Pedro Primiero abreast of the fort.
I therefore determined, as a force in our condition was not safe to hazard in any combination requiring prompt and implicit obedience, to adopt the step of which I had apprised the Prime Minister, and took the squadron to Moro San Paulo, where, transferring from the bad sailing frigates to the flagship, the captains, officers, and best petty officers and seamen, the Pedro Primiero was rendered more efficient than the whole together; and with her and the Maria de Gloria, I resolved to conduct further operations against the enemy leaving the Piranga, and Nitherohy, together with all the other vessels, in charge of Captain Pio the two senior captains having been transferred to the flagship, in charge of their officers and men.

The result predicted by Carvalho as I had learned by experience was not improbable, but it did not follow that, because the Brazilian ministers were unjust and hostile to me, I should accept a bribe from a traitor to follow his example.
