notes:
Text relates Alonso de Ojeda's arrival in Venezuela where the natives lived in houses built on the lake. When the natives saw the Spanish coming they paddled in canoes with young women to offer them to the visitors. At a signal from older women, the young women jumped from the canoes and the men began shooting arrows at the Spanish.
