And this also they did willingly, because our Captain, according to his custom, contented them for theirpains, with such things as they account greatly of; in such sort thatthey promised, we should have there, of them at any time what we would. The same day, we departed thence to Rio Grande [Magdalena], where weentered about three of the clock in the afternoon. There are two entriesinto this river, of which we entered the western most called _BocaChica_. The freshet [current] is so great, that ...we being half a leaguefrom the mouth of it, filled fresh water for our beverage. From three o'clock till dark at night, we rowed up the stream; but thecurrent was so strong downwards, that we got but two leagues, all thattime. We moored our pinnaces to a tree that night: for that presently, with the closing of the evening, there fell a monstrous shower ofrain, with such strange and terrible claps of thunder, and flashes oflightning, as made us not a little to marvel at, although our Captainhad been acquainted with such like in that country, and told us thatthey continue seldom longer than three-quarters of an hour.
