		After having their arms and two horses confiscated by the Paraguayan army, Candide and Cacambo land themselves in the company of the Reverend Father Commandant, who turns out to be Miss Cunégonde's brother, the Baron of Thunder-ten-tronckh.
		Cacambo intervenes and challenges the Oreillons to inquire into the matter, whereupon they discover that Candide is in fact not a Jesuit.

		Cacambo ironically describes the kingdom "the fathers are there masters of everything, and the people have no money at all; this is the masterpiece of justice and reason." (p.355) If one were a Jesuit in the country, then it might well seem a utopia as he would have tyrannical control.
		Cacambo is confident that Cunegund will be safe under the eye of God, but one still considers the events that have taken place at the castle and those that followed.
		Cacambo's conclusion that it is practical for one to kill his enemies seems to show Voltaire's view that there are few truly devoted religious people.

		Cacambo went up to the door and heard those within talking in the Peruvian language, which was his mother tongue; for everyone knows that Cacambo was born in a village of Tucuman, where no other language is spoken.
		As soon as dinner was over, both Candide and Cacambo thought they should pay very handsomely for their entertainment by laying down two of those large gold pieces which they had picked off the ground; but the landlord and landlady burst into a fit of laughing and held their sides for some time.
		Cacambo explained the whole of this speech of the landlord to Candide, who listened to it with the same astonishment with which his friend communicated it.

		Cacambo vented all his curiosity upon his landlord by a thousand different questions; the honest man answered him thus, "I am very ignorant, sir, but I am contented with my ignorance; however, we have in this neighborhood an old man retired from court, who is the most learned and communicative person in the whole kingdom."

	Essay on Candide
		Cacambo's explanation of the way los Padres run things in Paraguay is a forerunner to contemporary Communism (say, of the Soviet Union), where los Padres own everything and the people nothing, los Padres allowing the people to live on and use their land.
		Additionally, los Padres, Cacambo states, are wholly right and divine in their making war upon the Kings of Spain in Paraguay while acting as confessors to them in Europe (34-35).
		Perhaps it is that Candide and Cacambo would have grown restless and bored in such a static and self-regulated society as that of El Dorado.

	The Reception Candide and Cacambo Met with among the Jesuits in Paraguay
		His name was Cacambo; he had a great affection for his master, because his master was a very good man. He immediately saddled the two Andalusian horses.
		The two strangers were conducted between two files of musketeers, the Commandant was at the further end with a three-cornered cap on his head, his gown tucked up, a sword by his side, and a half-pike in his hand; he made a sign, and instantly four and twenty soldiers drew up round the newcomers.
		He was a very handsome young man, round-faced, fair, and fresh-colored, his eyebrows were finely arched, he had a piercing eye, the tips of his ears were red, his lips vermilion, and he had a bold and commanding air; but such a boldness as neither resembled that of a Spaniard nor of a Jesuit.

	Candide / 1999 Royal National Theatre Production
		As Candide and Cacambo go off in search of the Governor to get commissions in the army to fight against the Jesuit rebels, Cunegonde and the Old Woman consider the grim likelihood that they will be living in poverty in a dreary colonial outpost.
		They make their way through the jungle and arrive at the Jesuit camp where Candide is amazed to find that the Father Superior is none other than Maximilian, Cunegonde's brother, who was reported to have been killed at the same time as Cunegonde but who has had a similarly miraculous escape.
		The rest of the 'family'- Cacambo, Paquette, the Old Woman, Maximilian and Pangloss are all stuck in their various miseries, only Martin attempting to cajole them out of their self-centered woe.

	Voltaire's 'Candide'; chapter 18 'what they saw'
		Candide and Cacambo got into the coach, and the six sheep were so fleet, that in less than four hours they reached the King's palace, which was situated at one end of the metropolis.
		Cacambo interpreted the King's repartees to Candide, and though they were translated, they appeared excellent repartees still; a thing which surprised Candide about as much as anything else.
		This proposal was extremely agreeable to Cacambo; so fond are we of running about, of making a figure among our countrymen, of telling our exploits, and what we have seen in our travels, that these two really happy men resolved to be no longer so, and accordingly asked his Majesty's leave to depart.

		While reading Candide's and Cacambo's adventures together in South America I was pleasantly reminded of a similar adventurous pair, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.
		Another reason I prefer Cacambo is because he is the most positive character in the book.
		Even the pessimist Martin is proven wrong in the case of Cacambo's loyalty to his master Candide.

	Voltaire's 'Candide'; chapter 17 'Arrival at Eldorado'
		Cacambo, who was on all occasions as good a counsellor as the old woman, said to Candide, "We can hold out no longer; we have walked enough already, and here's an empty canoe upon the shore, let's fill it with cocoa, then get on board, and let it drift with the stream.
		Cacambo went up to the door, and heard them speaking the Peruvian language, which was his mother-tongue; for every one of my readers knows that Cacambo was born at Tucuman, a village where they make use of no other language.
		When the repast was ended, Cacambo and Candide thought to discharge their reckoning, by putting down two of the large pieces of gold which they had picked up.

	Voltaire: Candide
		Cacambo, qui donnait toujours d'aussi bons conseils que la vieille, dit à Candide : « Nous n'en pouvons plus, nous avons assez marché ; j'aperçois un canot vide sur le rivage, emplissons-le de cocos, jetons-nous dans cette petite barque, laissons-nous aller au courant ; une rivière mène toujours à quelque endroit habité.
		Cacambo s'approcha de la porte, et entendit qu'on parlait péruvien ; c'était sa langue maternelle : car tout le monde sait que Cacambo était né au Tucuman, dans un village où l'on ne connaissait que cette langue.
		Quand le repas fut fini, Cacambo crut, ainsi que Candide, bien payer son écot en jetant sur la table de l'hôte deux de ces larges pièces d'or qu'il avait ramassées ; l'hôte et l'hôtesse éclatèrent de rire, et se tinrent longtemps les côtés.
