Francisco, be transfered to the same chapel.
They then ask the king to confirm the entail of the Moura, which they establish. This entail shall be inherited by their eldest son, and his successors thereafter, together with the entail of the Côrte-Reais, unless the lineage of D. Cristóvão and D. Margarida is extinguished. In that case, the two entails shall be separated. If the Moura entail is separated from the entail of the Côrte-Reais, the heirs of the Côrte-Reais shall have the houses in Lisboa which belong to the Moura entail, however they'll have to pay their revenue to the successors of the Moura line. The line of the Côrte-Reais shall also keep the capitania da Praia, in the island of Terceira, which D. Cristóvão had received from the king.
