"Undeterred by the unprecedented losses which he had sustained", asserts historian James McClymont, when Cabral "reached the East African coast, pressed forward to the accomplishment of the task which had been assigned to him and was able to inspire the surviving officers and men with like courage."
"Tanpa gentar oleh kerugian-kerugian yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya yang telah ia alami," kata sejarawan James McClymont, ketika Cabral "mencapai pantai Afrika Timur, mendesak maju demi pemenuhan tugas yang telah dibebankan kepadanya serta mampu menginspirasi para perwira dan orang-orang yang bertahan hidup dengan keberanian serupa."
