The town was to him a complete surprise: the existence of many Negroes and Indians and the elephants belonging to the king showed him a world of «strange animals and people». He also knew some habits which were unusual or not existents in his country, as flagellant processions and noisy funerals, as well as legal harshness in view of adultery, and dirtiness of homes and streets.
