104] Spanish, _Religion_. This word was first used in the sense of
"monastic order" or "monastery" in the sixth century, in France. This
narrower sense was used along with the broader one, until the latter
was gradually crowded out (during the second half of the fourteenth
century); being, however, finally recovered during the epoch of the
Reformation; The term "man of religion" (_homo religionis_, _homme de
religion_) was never used in Latin, French, or English to mean a pious
man, but exclusively for a man belonging to a religious order. See
"History of the word _religio_ in the Middle Ages," by. Professor Ewald
Fluegel, of Leland Stanford Junior University--an abstract of which
is printed in _Transactions_ of American Philological Association,
1902, pp. ci, cii.

[105] Thus in our transcript; but in the king's answer to this letter
(_post_) the name appears as Rivero.

[106] Probably referring to the people of Butung or boeton, a large
island off the southeastern peninsula of Celebes; their state of
civilization is similar to that of the Macassar and Bugis of that
island.

[107] This recommendation was thus answered by the king, in a despatch
to Corcuera dated Madrid, December 1, 1636: "Inasmuch as it is proper
that all the prelates take personal charge of the government of their
churches, thus fulfilling their so stringent obligations for that, I
have thought it best--notwithstanding that I charge them by a decree
of the same date as this that, if they should be absent from their
churches, they shall without fail go to reside in them--to order
you, as I am doing, to see for your part by repeated urgings that
they go to reside at and to serve their churches, in case that any
of them should be absent." This is found in the "Cedulario Indico,"
at Madrid--pressmark, "Tomo 39, fol. 228."
