(a) i then gave up my silver and copper money, my purse, with nine large pieces of gold, and some smaller ones; my knife and razor, my comb and silver snuff-box, my handkerchief and journal-book.
(b) my gentleness and good behaviour had gained so far on the emperor and his court, and indeed upon the army and people in general, that i began to conceive hopes of getting my liberty in a short time.
(c) these gentlemen, having pen, ink, and paper, about them, made an exact inventory of everything they saw; and when they had done, desired i would set them down, that they might deliver it to the emperor.
(d) an establishment was also made of six hundred persons to be my domestics, who had board-wages allowed for their maintenance, and tents built for them very conveniently on each side of my door.
