Oh heck, Marianna, can't yall just accept my authority on these matters so we can move on to things more current?
No? Well, ok, I've sent an email to Martin Dugard who wrote The Last Voyage of Columbus asking him for the pre-translated words of Fernando's quotation.

Maybe I'm wrong. I'm reading from an advance copy of The Last Voyage of Columbus that hasn't been edited.

Hey! I've got another great idea! I'll write Benjamin Keen of New Brunswick, NJ, who translated The Life of the Admiral Christopher Columbus by Fernando Colon and ask him.

If I can find his email address.

Too late. Mister Keen died four years ago. His book (translation) was completed in 1992. Now what?
