and revering
juan de castellanos in his elegies of men
ill-strious of the indies, presents him with a personality
overwhelming, impeccable conduct and excessive power
manaure was a man of great moment, of clarity and of
shrewd understanding. he had soft works with spaniards
words well measured and ordered, in all their conquests
and demands trembled from the altered people, never
i saw a virtue that he did not praise nor a sin that did not correct him
he never gave a word that would break it or promised anything that
