Description: Sancho, with all of his attendants, arrived in the walled town of Barataria which inhabited about a thousand citizens. Officers and officials of the city came to greet their new governor while the people gave demonstrations of their joy. Sancho proceeded through the cobbled stone road towards the church where many ceremonies were set to take place. In the meantime, many citizens could not withhold their surprise and amusement for the garb, the port, the huge beard, and the short and thick shape of the new governor.
