Note 181 — GOMES EANNES DE AZURARA; (continued 2)
C. Raymond (Charles Raymond) Beazley translation
Azurara (Chronicle of Guinea, c. lxxxiii.) says that the Regent, D. Pedro, having a special devotion to this saint, and being much interested in the re-discovery of the Azores, caused this name to be given. Prince Henry afterwards granted the Order of Christ the tithes of St. Michael, and one-half of the sugar revenues.
