	Milesius of Spain
		At length Milesius took leave of his father-in-law, and returned to Spain, where he arrived, to the great joy of his people, who were much disturbed by incessant wars, and the intrusion of foreign nations, after the death of his father and during his own long absence from Spain.
		Milesius looked upon this as a just punishment from heaven on him and on his people for their negligence in not seeking the country destined for their final abode, so long foretold by the Druid, Cachear, as already mentioned, the time limited by the prophecy being now almost expired.
		Milesius was a very valiant champion, a great and fortunate warrior, and prosperous in all his undertakings.
