\nY estos tales tamimes eran vasallos de señores o de principales, en cuyas tierras ellos vivían, y les daban y contribuían, en lugar de tributo, la caza que cazaban de conejos, venados y culebras, y eran grandes conocedores de muchas yerbas y raíces, y de sus virtudes e calidades, y de las muy ponzoñosas con que se murían luego las gentes o se secaban poco a poco hasta que murían. También conocían cierto género de sierpe, que llaman mazacóatl, y solían andar con unas petaquillas o a cuestas, y entre las casas andar vendiendo las yerbas medicinales que llaman patli.
