que se llama etzalcualiztli, que se pone en el Segundo Libro, en el capítulo séptimo. Allí está a la larga las cerimonias y sacrificios con que la festejaban. Allí se podrá ver.
\nLos que eran devotas a esta diosa y la festejaban eran todos aquellos que tienen sus granjerías en el agua, como son los que venden agua en canoas, y los que venden agua en tinajas en la plaza.
\nLos atavíos con que pintaban a esta diosa son que la pintaban la cara con color amarilla, y la ponían un collar de piedras preciosas de que colgaba una medalla de oro. En la cabeza tenía una corona hecha de papel pintada de azul claro, con unos penachos de plumas verdes y con unas borlas que colgaban hacia el colodrillo, y otras hacia la frente de la misma corona, todo de color azul claro. Tenía sus orejeras labrada de turquesas de obra mosaica. Estaba vestida de un huipil y unas naoas pintadas de la misma color azul claro, con unas franjas de que colgaban caracolitos mariscos. Tenían en la mano izquierda una rodela con una hoja ancha y redonda que se cría en el agua; la llaman atlacuezona. Tenía en la mano derecha un vaso con una cruz hecho a manera de la custodia en que se lleva el sacramento cuando uno solo le lleva, y era como cetro desta diosa. Tenía sus cutaras blancas.
\nLos señores y reyes veneraban mucho a esta diosa, con otras dos que era la diosa de los mantenimientos, que llamaban Chicumecóatl, y la diosa de la sal, que llamaban Huixtocíhuatl, porque decían que estas tres diosas mantenían a la gente popular para que pudiesen vivir y multiplicar.
