_Paulo Vergeryo_ is Pietro Paulo Vergerio, born at Capo d'Istria, July 23, 1370, died at Buda, 1444 (1428 according to others). He enjoyed a considerable reputation as a scholar at Padua in 1393, etc., and migrated to Hungary in 1419. See Bayle, _Dict. Crit._ IV, 430 (1741); P. Louisy, in _Nouvelle Biographie Générale_, art. (Vergerio); J. Bernardi, in _Riv. Univers._ (Florence, 1875) xxii, 405-430, in _Arch. Stor. Ital._ (1876) C., xxiii, 176-180; Brunet, _Manuel V_, 1132-3; Muratori, _Rer. Ital. Scr._ (edition of Vergerio's works) XVI, pp. 111-187, 189-215, 215-242; _Fabricius_, ed. Mansi, VI, p. 289. He has left various _Orations and Letters_; especially an _Epistola de morte Francisci Zabarekae_, and a _Historia seu Vitae Carariensium Principum ab eorum origine usque ad Jacobini mortem_ (1355). See also Joachim Vadianus, _Biographia P. P. Vergerii, sen._; and C. A. Combi, _Di Pierpaolo V. ... seniore ... memoria_, Venice, 1880.] [Endnote 107: (p. 116). _Gonçalo Pacheco ... Kingdom._--Barros copies this sentence, with some omissions. The allusion to the _High Treasurer of Ceuta_ (_Thesoureiro Mor das cousas de Cepta_), and his _Noble lineage, goodness, and valour_, is interesting in its proof of the detailed attention given to the new conquest, and to African affairs generally, by the Portuguese government at this time.] [Endnote 108: (p. 117). _Cape Branco._--On the _personnel_ of this expedition we have accounts elsewhere; for Dinis Eannes de Graã and the rest, see chs. xxxvii-xlviii, and especially pp. 121, 122, 126, 130, 131, 138; for Mafaldo, especially p. 119 ("a man well acquainted with this business ... had been many times in the Moorish traffic"); also pp. 120-121, etc. Cape Branco, since its discovery by Nuno Tristam, had become the favourite rendezvous of the Portuguese expeditions on this coast. See ch. lii, p. 153 (made agreement to await one another _as usual at Cape Branco_). On the _banners of the Order of Christ_, see Introduction to vol. ii, pp. xviii-xix; and in this Chronicle, pp. 62 (ch. xviii), 53 (ch. xv), 117 (ch. xxxvii), etc. [Cf. a parchment atlas (unpublished), executed in Messina as late as 1567 by João Martinez, in which two Portuguese ships are painted in various points of the Eastern Ocean _with the Cross of the Order of Christ on their sails_, apparently to indicate the Portuguese dominion in those waters. This atlas passed into the Library of Heber, and afterwards into that of M. Ternaux.]--S.] [Endnote 109: (p. 120). _The patience with which men bear the troubles of their fellows_ is another piece of irony, similar to that on p. 102; see note 96.] [Endnote 110: (p. 122). _Fifty-three Moorish prisoners._--In this, as in subsequent actions, Mafaldo, rather than Gonçalo Pacheco, showed himself to be the leader of the expedition.]
