No lo hacía él por sus manos, porque no le era lícito, sino rogaba a los sátrapas, que eran en esto experimentados y para esto señalados, que le hiciesen estas imágenes a quien había hecho el voto. Los que las hacían poníanles dientes de pepitas de calabaza, y poníanles en lugar de ojos unos frisoles negros que son tan grandes como habas, aunque no de la misma hechura, y llámanlos ayecutli. En los demás atavíos poníanselos según la imagen con que los imaginan y pintan, al dios del viento como a Quetzalcóatl, al agua como la diosa del agua, a la lluvia como al dios de la lluvia, y a los otros montes según las imágines con que los pintan. Después de hechas estas imágines ofrecíanles papel de lo que ellos hacían, y era que un pliego de papel le echaban muchas gotas de la goma que se llama ulli, derretido. Hecho esto, colgaban al cuello de la imagen el papel, de manera que le cubría desde los pechos abaxo, y con el remate de abaxo arpaban el papel. También ponían estos mismos papeles goteados con ulli y colgados de unos cordeles delante de las mismas imágines, de manera que los papeles estaban asidos los unos de los otros, y meneábalos el aire porque estaban los cordeles en que estaban los papeles colgados atados a las puntas de unos varales o báculos que estaban hincados en el suelo, y de la una punta del uno a la punta del otro estaba atado el cordel o mécatl.
