Then followed General Don Luis Fajardo, the governor’s brother, an energetic youth, whose judgment and talent at a so tender age promise great hopes; and he was very splendidly dressed.  His companion was Captain Don Juan Alonso de Sosa, regidor of this city, well known for his worth and good qualities.  Their livery was of blue satin and gold, embroidered in outline through its field, and many flowers; as cipher they had a “J” while there was a blue band on the shield with letters of gold, that read:  “For my king;” and on the streamer of the lance others that read, “Philipus,” which was surmounted by a golden crown.  Their caps and flying ornaments were very beautiful, and had many feathers and silver embroidery.  They were followed by many servants clad in the same livery.

Behind them went Captain Pedro de Chaves, regidor of Manila, son of the master-of-camp, Pedro de Chaves; and as his companion, Alferez Don Mateo de Avila, now captain of infantry.  Their livery consisted of straw-colored satin embroidered in rose color, with ornaments of silver.  On their shields were bands of rose colored taffeta, bearing in cipher the name of “Isabel,” in silver.  On the streamers of the lances were the respective ciphers “Isabel” and “Maria,” in letters of gold.  They bore ornaments of gilded swords and daggers, and great tufts of feathers.  The bands of the horses were of taffeta gilded and embroidered in gold.  Their boots were silvered, their caps embroidered, and they had many more ornaments.  Behind them were Sargento-mayor Pedro de Cuenca Montalvo and his companion Don Diego Maldonado, clad in livery of blue and yellow satin, embroidered in orange color, with many fringes of gold and silver, and as a cipher an “A” surmounted by a golden crown.  On the shield was a yellow band, that read in letters of gold:  “Steadfast unto death.”  On the streamers of the lances were these words:  “I will be steadfast,” and some very green palms.

Captains Diego Lorenzo de Trezo and Luis Alonso de Roa followed in blue livery, which was adorned with many fleurs-de-lis made of silver, edged with wavy lines, and very bright and beautiful.  On the shield was a blue band with silver letters that read, “Long live King Philipe Fourth,” and on the streamers of the lances was the word, in silver letters, “Philipus.”  Behind them entered Admiral Don Pedro de Zarate, a prudent youth, and one of great good sense.  His companion was Captain Juan Rodriguez del Castillo.  Their livery was green, embroidered with gold and silver, and on the shields were tawny-colored bands.  On one part of the shield of Captain Juan Rodriguez del Castillo was a tower, and on another a castle, with a chain that encircled both; on one part of the streamers of the lances were the royal arms, and on the other those of the city.
