flores. Están plantados en floresta árboles en que se hacen las flores que se llaman yolloxóchitl, y también el árbol se llama yolloxochicuáhuitl. Son estas flores olorosas y hermosas, y su hechura es como corazó. Antiguamente solamente los señores las usaban, especialmente las que llaman itlacayolloxóchitl, porque hay otras de menos precio que llaman itzcuinyolloxóchitl, que ni son hermosas ni huelen, y usan dellas la gente baja.
\nEsta flor llamada yolloxuchicuáhuitl hácese en árboles grandes como nogales. Llámase tanbién el árbol yolloxúchitl. Son éstas flores preciosas y de muy suave olor. Tienen la hechura de corazón. Por de dentro son muy blancas. Son estas flores de dos maneras: unos que se llaman tlacayolloxúchitl, son grandes, muy hermosas, úsanlas los señores y gente de arte; hay otras que se llaman itzcuinyolloxúchitl, son medianas y de poco olor, usan dellas la gente baxa. Es muy medicinal. Y tanbién la beben con el cacao, que le da muy buen sabor. Le hace más provechoso.
