33. To those whom he dismissed from lieutenancies he increased the tributes. For these reasons the people would not receive him in Cuzco, Arequipa, Huanuco, Chachapoyas, Charcas and Quito. Many went to Cuzco with arms and horses, wishing to march against him to kill him or drive him out of the country, for they said that he was a man without justice, proud, very cruel, one who neither kept his word nor promise, and one in whom they could have no faith. [Sidenote: Failure of his attempts to treat with rebels.] 34. He treated many times with Gonzalo Pizarro and others who had risen against him, but they always answered that he must leave the country and that they would not be governed by him. [Sidenote: H. M. treasure spent on armaments.] 35. He proposed to the Judges and officials that 50 arquebusiers and 30 mounted soldiers should be raised for a guard for himself and the city, and on this pretext he spent 150,000 _castellanos_ of your Majesty’s treasure, by the hand of Vela Nuñez, whom he made Captain-General, and of Cueto who has taken 30,000 _castellanos_ without giving any account, for his servants. [Sidenote: Soldiers disloyal.] 37[68]. Most of these soldiers, by reason of their bad treatment, say that they do not want the Viceroy to win, nor to fight for him.

[Sidenote: Wild threats.] 39. He treats everyone as a traitor, threatening to kill them. At the same time that he tried to treat with those of Cuzco, he publicly declared that he would kill some and banish others; and that he wished ill to all and would defeat them. [Sidenote: Conduct of Judges a contrast.] 40. The Judges had lived at their own cost and honestly, had given advice to the Viceroy and sent two bishops to treat with the rebels. [Sidenote: Viceroy’s conduct cause of the rebellion.] 41. The Viceroy by his attempt to enforce the ordinances untimely and without the consent of the Judges, and by his follies, evil speeches, and cruelties has been the cause of the rebellion. [Sidenote: Treatment of two women.] 42. He condemned a married woman, with Indians, on the ground that she had perjured herself respecting an emerald cross which she said she had given to the Licentiate Vaca de Castro, to imprisonment and to do public penance in the church. He ordered another to be sent to prison for sitting near him in church. As regards the first sentence he enraged everyone. As regards the second all the relations rose in rebellion and wanted to kill him. [Sidenote: Acted alone in criminal cases and actions for debt.] 43. In criminal cases, and suits for debts he alone heard and sentenced. [Sidenote: Favouritism.] 44. Under colour of the war he gave his servants double the pay received by the other soldiers.
