Pàgina 292 - I have witnessed the declaration of the independence of the states of Chile and Peru. I hold in my possession the standard which Pizarro brought to enslave the empire of the Incas, and I have ceased to be a public man — thus I am more than rewarded for ten years spent in revolution and warfare. My promises to the countries in which I warred are fulfilled ; to make them independent, and leave to their will the election of their governments.
