"He [the sultan] gave them the choice of staying there, provided they paid him tribute, or of leaving with all their movable goods."
"He granted them the free exercise of their religion, with the right to keep their churches, on condition that they showed respect for the mosques and the Muslim religion."
"He ordered them to hand over all their artillery, ammunition, and weapons of every sort, and forbade them to ever build any new fortifications. He appointed a governor and a garrison for the island."
