[a]quellas tierras que eran regadas con las nubes de aquellos montes, persuadidos o amonestados del Demonio o de sus sátrapas, tomaron por costumbre y devoción de venir a visitar aquellos montes cada año en la fiesta que allí estaba dedicada, en México, en la fiesta de Cihuacóatl, que también la llaman Tonantzin; en Tlaxcalla, en la fiesta de Toci; en Tianquizmanalco, en la fiesta de Tezcatlipuca. Y porque esta costumbre no la perdiesen los pueblos que gozaban della, persuadieron a aquellas provincias que veniesen como solían, porque ya tenían Tonantzin y a Tocitzin y al Telpuchtli que esteriormente suena, o les ha hecho sonar a Sancta María y a Sanctana y a San Juan Evangelista o Baptista, y en lo interior de la gente popular que allí viene está claro que no es sino lo antiguo, y a la secuela de lo antiguo vienen. Y no es mi parecer que les empidan la venida ni la ofrenda; pero es mi parecer que los desengañen del engaño de que padecen, dándolos a entender en aquellos días que allí vienen la falsidad antigua, y que no es aquello conforme a lo antiguo. Y esto debrían de hacer predicadores bien entendidos en la lengua y costumbres antiguos que ellos tenían, y también en la escritura divina.

\nSpanish glosses in the Nahuatl column: tlayeltetl: another type of pebble. tetlayelli: another type of pebble. tetlacuactli: another type of pebble. tenextetl: another type of limestone. tenextetl: another type of boiled limestone. tlacuahuac tetl: another type of coarse black stones. cacalotetl: another type of stone that is not fit to be carved.↩
those lands which were sprinkled by the clouds of those mountains, persuaded or threatened by the demon or his agents, adopted the custom and attachment to come to visit those mountains each year in the feast which was assigned there: in Mexico in the feast of Cioacoatl who is also called Tonantzin, in Tlaxcalla in the feast of Toçi, in Tianquizmanalco in the feast of Tezcatlipoca.
\nAnd, in order that they not lose this custom, the villages that enjoyed it persuaded those provinces that they come as usual because they already had Tonantzin and Tocitzin and Telpochtli, who on the surface were like, or whom they made like, Saint Mary, Saint Ann, and Saint John the Evangelist or Baptist. And it is clear that, in the minds of the common people who come there, it is nothing other than the ancient custom. I now know that it comes from ancient custom. And it is not my judgment that they should be denied either the coming or the offering, but it is my judgment that they be undeceived of the error from which they suffer, by giving them to understand, on those days they come there, the ancient falsehood, and that it is not as in times of old. Preachers well versed in the language and the ancient customs which they had, as well as in the Holy Writ, should do this.
