BENAVIDES TO THE KING
197
give you light always, in order that your Majesty may be guided aright in a government so far away from the royal eyes as this, where the governors have so many opportunities to cause the destruction of the poor vassals of your Majesty. Tulac, May 17, 1599.
Fray Miguel de Benavides,
Bishop of Nueva Segovia.
