O raspar polvos de un cierto marisco llamado cuechtli, y mezclarlos con agua tibia y sal, y echar algunas gotas en los oídos.
\nContra las llagas que están dentro de los oídos, será necesario derretir un poco de ulli, que es cierta goma negra de árboles así llamada, y echarse dentro de los oídos.
\nContra las llagas que están fuera de los oídos, se ternán estos remedios, y son que se ha de tomar la hoja de coyoxóchitl, molerla y mezclarla con ocuzote, y ponerla en la llaga; o molerla y mezclarla con el axi ya dicho, y ponella en la propia llaga. O tomar la yerba llamada en México cicimátic y mezclarla con clara de huevo, y ponerla en la llaga. O todas las demás yerbas que son contra las llagas pudridas, como es la yerba llamada chipilli y el cuesco de aguacate.
\nContra las hinchazones del rostro que proceden del dolor de los oídos, que en indio se dice nacazcualiztli, se ha de poner la hoja de cualquier yerba que quema, molida y mezclada con el oxite y con el cisco arriba dicho.
\nPara los que tienen el rostro abohetado y hinchado se usará de los remedios siguientes: que se tome un animalejo llamado en la lengua tapayaxin, y cocerlo muy mucho, y comerlo el enfermo; con el cual expolerá la dicha enfermedad. Que para la misma dolencia también aprovechará cualquier purga que se bebiere, mayormente la purga de la raíz dicha en la lengua oolóltic, con la cual por arriba o por abajo saldrá la enfermedad.
