La Relacion: Found Poem

 "As the sun rose next morning, the Indians appeared as they promised, bringing an adundance of fish and of certain roots... mostly grubber from the water with great labor." The Indians were very generous people and hard working when it comes to their necessitites.
     "They thought themselves rich with the little bells and beads we gave them, and they repeated their visits on other days." Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca would barter with the Indians everyday, the Indians even came one day with their women and children to observe Cabeza de Vaca and his mem. They were astonished from how different these people were.
     "Being provided with what we needed, we thought to embark again." These men had their shipped trapped on shore dug into the sand after a hurricane destroyed their ship, so as they repaired it the Indians came over everyday to supply them with food and generosity.
