Portugal now began to gather gold from Sofala to Makdishu; ^Wagerage,' the chief of Melinde, contributed every year 1500 wedges (ingots) of the precious metal, and the insolence of the victors must have made the good old man deeply regret the welcome and the Godspeed which he had bestowed upon the exploratory expedition.
The Portuguese having wrested Kilwa and Mombasah from its Arab chiefs, D. Duarte de Lemos, appointed (a.d. 1508) by the King Governor of the * Provinces of Ethiopia and Arabia,...' attacked successively Mafiyah, Zan- zibar, and Pemba, for failing in the paramount duty of paying tribute. Mafiyah submitted, the people of Pemba escaped to Mombasah, leaving nothing in their houses, and Zanzibar resisted, but the town was taken and plundered. The Shaykh retired northwards, and his subjects fled to the bush, * depois de bem esfarrapados na came con a ponta da lan9a, e espada dos nossos ' — ^after being well pierced in the flesh by the lance-points and the sword-blades of our men — Digitized by Google THE PORTUGUESE.
