haciendo estos daños. Y por esto los padres y madres vedaban a sus hijos y hijas que en ciertos días del año en que tenían que descendían estas diosas que no saliesen fuera de casa, porque no topasen con ellos destas diosas, y no los hiciesen algún daño. Y cuando alguno le daba perlesía o otra enfermedad repentina, o entraba en él algún demonio, decían que esta diosas lo había hecho.
\nY por esto las hacían fiesta, y en esta fiesta ofrecían en su templo, o en las encrucijadas de los caminos, pan hecha de diversas figuras: unos, como mariposas; otros, de figura del rayo que cae del cielo, que llaman xonecuilli; y también unos tamalejos que se llaman xucuichtlamatzoalli, y maíz tostado que llaman ellos ízquitl.
\nLa imagen destas diosas tiene la cara blanquecina, como si estuviese teñida con color muy blanco, como es el tízatl; lo mismo los brazos y piernas. Tenían unas orejeras de oro; los cabellos tocados como las señoras, con sus cornezuelos; el huipil era pintado de unas olas de negro; las naguas tenía labradas de diversos colores; tenía sus cutaras blancas.
\nEsta diosa llamada Chalchiuhtli Icue, diosa del agua, pintábanla como a mujer. Y decían que era hermana de los dioses de la lluvia, que llaman tlaloques. Honrábanla porque decían que ella tenía poder sobre el agua de la mar y de los ríos, para ahogar los que andan en estas aguas, y hacer tempestades y torbellinos en el agua, y anegar los navíos y barcas y otros vasos que andan por el agua.
\nHacían fiesta a esta diosa en la fiesta
