[26] The following two sections are taken from the Historia de los
religiosos descalzos (Madrid, 1681) of Luis de Jesus, pp. 371-373.

[27] The title-page of this book, translated, reads as follows:
"General history of the discalced religious of the Order of the
hermits of the great father and doctor of the Church, St. Augustine,
of the congregation of Espana and of the Indias. Volume third:
which was written by the very reverend father Fray Diego de Santa
Theresa, pensioned lecturer, ex-definitor, and chronicler-general
of the said congregation; arranged and enlarged by Father Fray
Pedro de San Francisco de Assis, pensioned lecturer, calificador
of the Holy Office, definitor of the holy province of Aragon, and
chronicler-general. Dedicated to Nuestra Senora del Pilar [i.e., "our
Lady of the Pillar"] of Zaragoza. Containing apologetic additions
to the first volume in defense of the discalced Augustinians, in
answer to what was written against them by the father master Fray
Alonso de Villerino; and one decade, namely, from the year 1651 to
that of 1660. With license. In Barcelona; at the press of the heirs
of Juan Pablo and Maria Marti, under the management of Mauro Marti,
in the year 1743." The heading of the dedication is as follows:
"To the sovereign queen of heaven and earth, on her throne of
the pillar in Zaragoza" and it is followed by a long and curious
letter of dedication. We translate and condense from a copy owned
by the Library of Congress, which bears the following inscription:
[This book] belongs to the Library of the convent of the discalced
Augustinian fathers of Valladolid. Fray Tomas de San Jose, Librarian."

[28] Manobos: This name is applied to several pagan Malay tribes in
northern and eastern Mindanao, the word meaning "man"--just as many
other savage tubes in all parts of the world designate themselves as
"men" ("the men," par excellence); but Santa Theresa's description
of them does not accord with that of Dr. Barrows. (See Census of
Philippine Islands, i, pp. 461, 462.)
