Xxviii.
A FOURTH VOYAGE PLANNED. 221 greater glory he would obtain compared with that of Portugal. It was, besides, no slight advantage for him to keep the admiral occu pied on an expedition that would take considerable time, diverting him in the meanwhile from all thoughts of making annoying and burdensome claims, and at the same time employing his talents in the most beneficial way for the crown : for, if Ferdinand had any doubts as to the capacity of Columbus for government, he had the great...est esteem for him as a navigator ; and if the strait Columbus spoke of really existed, no one could be better fitted to discover it. His plan was therefore accepted, and he was authorized to get a squadron ready as soon as possible. He set out at once for Seville to devote himself wholly to making the necessary preparations. This was in the autumn of 1501.
The cares of fitting out a fleet did not divert his thoughts from his other idea, which was ever foremost in his mind, and in the early part of the next year, 1502, having properly arranged his Book of the Prophecies, he presented it to the king and queen, accompanied by the letter already mentioned.
