.75. Hay otra yerba medicinal que se llama tetzmític. Es semejante a la mata que se llama tétzmetl. También se llama cuauholli. Tiene las hojas muy verdes y correosas y redondillas. También mana leche y tiene las ramas coloradas. Mana leche de las hojas y de los grumos cuando se corta. Esta leche, echada en los ojos, temple el calor dellos y quite la bermejura dellos, y aclaros y purifícalos. La raíces desta yerba son dulces y espesas y larguillas, y por de fuera tienen color castaño, y por de dentro blanco. Lo interior desta raíz, mulida, provoca la urina y purifícala. Y también templa el calor demasiado. Hácese en las montañas y en las ciénagas.
