But the comedy did not end there. The escaped sailors spread the panic to the city, and the English landed only to see the in- habitants, headed by the governor, streaming away to the mountains.
From Valparaiso, Drake sailed to Tarapaca. Here the comedy became broad farce. The English found piles of silver bars lying loose on the wharves, and their guardians fast asleep. They removed the whole lot without waking them, and then lay in ambush while another mule convoy approached. The muleteers un...- loaded their burdens and lay down for a siesta. The English had that lot too. Then the Golden Hind sailed A Galley Running before the Wind (Jurien de la Graviere) An Admiral's Galley (Furttenbach, Architecture Xavalis, 1612) THE AGE OF DISCOVERY 123 out of harbour and shaped her course for Lima.
