Knowing that the foreigners are Christians and are not dangerous the inhabitants allow them to set foot into their islands. The people of the Island take good care of the sailors. The people of the Island are peace makers and are against wars. These sailors are allowed to stay there for as long as they wish. The place alotted for the foreigners is called "Foreigners House" which serves as a comfortable space and as well as away from danger for the inhabitants. There is an officer from Bensalem who meets these residents and asks for their needs. This makes the sailors impressed and they get confused whether or not to leave this island. The people in Bensalem respects one wise man the most. This wise man is praised for his "knowledge".
