Que com tam forte peito navegais:
Mas he tambem razaō, que no ponente
De hum Lusitano hum feito inda vejais,
Que de seu Rey monstrandose agravado,
Caminho ha de fazer nunqua cuidado.
Camoens, Canto x, 138.
Thus hast thou all the regions of the East,
Which by thee giv’n unto the world is now:
Opening a way with an undaunted breast,
Through that vast sea which none before did plough.
