Todo género de árbol cuya leña echada en el fuego ahumea mucho, la llaman poccuáhuitl, y quiere decir "madero o leña humosa".
\nHay un árbol silvestre, baxuelo, que se llama teócutl, la raíz del cual, cuando se quema, hoele como incienso. Solían usar dél solos los señores o principales. A los maceoales no les era lícito usar dél, ni quemarle en su casa.
\nHay un árbol silvestre o mata que se llama coatli, de que hacen velortas para hacer espuertas que llaman huacales. Es muy correoso, y si le echan en agua, para el agua azul. Y esta agua es medicinal para la urina.
\nHay un árbol silvestre que se llama topozan. Tiene la corteza delgada. Hace copa. Es baxuelo. Tiene las hojas anchas, de dos colores: de la una parte son muy verdes, y de la otra parte, blancas y vellosas; y hoelen mal. Es medicinal este árbol. La raíz dél, cocida con agua, es buena para purificar la urina y para hacer buena digestión, y para templar el calor.
\nHay salces en esta tierra, de dos maneras. Los unos hay que son más bastos. Llámanlos huéxotl o ahuéxotl o miccahuéxotl.
