Entre esses contavam-se 118 de 100 até 500 lastos, os quaes com velas, cordames e artilharia (a qual era muito pesada e se compunha de 650 canhões de bronze) calcula-se terem custado uns pelos outros 25.000 florins cada um navio. O que produz uma somma de 2.950.000 florins. E 101 navios e yachts de 90 até 15 lastos, bem providos de artilharia segundo o seu tamanho, cujo custo uns pelos outros, é avaliado em 10.000 florins; produzem a somma de 1.010.000 florins.

Com a primeira somma eleva-se a 3.960.000 florins.

Em segundo logar a Companhia equipou muitas embarcações nos annos citados e mandou para varias regiões dentro dos limites do seu privilegio e para a costa da Hespanha em serviço da patria; e os navios e yachts mencionados foram utilisados da seguinte forma:

De sorte que a Companhia aprestou nesses annos 806 navios, cuja equipagem com as necessarias munições de polvora e balas (pois a maior parte era destinada á guerra e havia navios muito fortes) uns pelos outros com os necessarios reparos e perdas não custaram menos de 6.000 florins cada um; e portanto a equipagem monta a 4.836.000 florins. E nesses navios assim como nas praças que a Companhia tem occupado ha algum tempo, tem-se empregado 67.010 (alem de um numero consideravel que foi omittido, porque ainda não podiam saber o numero exacto) cujas despezas de mesa, os officiaes, soldados, capitães de navios e marinheiros, calculados igualmente, perfaz pelo menos diariamente cada um 10 stuyver e portanto cada um annualmente 184 florins; avalio pelo calculo para abreviar que a Companhia manteve esse numero anno e meio; e temos portanto para mantimentos de boca a somma de 18.293.730. Os seus soldos ou pagamento mensal, avalio uns pelos outros em 180 florins annualmente (o que é tomado pelo minimo pois o soldado ordinario e raso ganha mensalmente oito florins e annualmente 96 florins e alguns officiaes 100, outros 200 e mesmo 300 por mez) de sorte que os soldos mensaes juntos ao já calculado por anno e meio, montam a uma somma de 18.093.700.

Segunda somma 41.223.430 florins. E montam as duas sommas já mencionadas a saber: a construcção ou compra dos navios, com as suas equipagens; os viveres e soldos da tripulação a uma somma de 45.183.430 florins. Não entraram nessa conta os artigos bellicos para serem utilisados em terra nem artigos de trem ou algumas despezas extraordinarias (as quaes qualquer que tem pratica disso avaliam muito alto); colloco-as contra os subsidios que o Governo deu ou prometteu e estão aqui apenas para recordação. Longe disso, a maior parte desses capitaes foram distribuidos aqui no paiz e gosados
