We have un­derstood by way of TANGIER, that we are in perfect Friendship, and that the Peace is concluded over all our Coun­tries; and therefore the Letter that we have sent, is to con­firm the Peace and the Treaty that we have made with you; for we desire to have a Trade with you: but let us not make the same Terms as we had in the beginning of the War, where­in so many dyed by the Sword when we were Enemies, but let our Enemies dye. We have slain such as have run away from us to you, but you have not done the same. For the Second Article is, That if any Renegado shall run away from us to TANGIER, you shall be obliged to send him back again. [Page 2] And for your security in this Treaty, we have sent unto you our Servant HERDƲ for the management of it; and our joy at it shall be like the thing that begins to grow: and I who am the Tree, send you one of my Branches, which I recommend to you, as if it were the Tree itself; and we have strictly charged him what he shall say to you. Look upon him as yo would do upon my self; that which he shall do, shall be well done, and you shall value it as a thing that comes from Heaven. We heartily desire you to write to us. Neither our Customs or Habits are like yours. If you will build any thing on our Ground, we will pull it down, and we shall do our selves right. We have amongst us some Christians that understand themselves, and are more esteemed than our own Servants; they have Eagles Eyes, but hate us and our belief, and therefore are a Scandal to us. He that va­lues our Honour, honoureth God. And because it is our de­sire that you should receive something from us, we have sent you Thirty Ostriches out of the Desert; and we expect that you should furnish us with Six Thousand pieces of Eight yearly. As for TANGIER, we stand in no manner of fear of it: and after the Ratification of the Peace, all Hostility betwixt us shall cease.
