Qual era, já o sabemos pelas cenas passadas; o italiano contava tornar-se senhor da banda, apoderar-se de Cecília, ir às minas encantadas, carregar tanta prata quanta pudesse levar, dirigir-se à Bahia, assaltar uma nau espanhola, tomá-la de abordagem, e fazer-se de vela para a Europa.

The setting

What it was, we already know from the past scenes: the Italian counted on making himself master of the band, seizing Cecília, going to the enchanted mines, loading all the silver he could carry, making for Bahia, boarding and taking a Spanish ship, and setting sail for Europe.
