“Of this voyage, I observe, that it has miraculously been shown, as may be understood by this writing, by the many signal miracles that He has shown on the voyage, and for me, who for so great a time was in the court of Your Highnesses with the opposition and against the opinion of so many high personages of your household, who were all against me, alleging this undertaking to be folly, which I hope in Our Lord will be to the greater glory of Christianity, which to some slight extent already has happened.” WritingMayTimeUnderstandingChristianityLordOpinionGreaterHappenedGloryUnderstoodMiracleCourtFollyOppositionHouseholdSignalsOur LordVoyagesUndertakingsAdmiralHighness Author:Christopher Columbus
