\nHay una culebra en esta tierra que se llama acóatl o tlilcóatl que anda en el agua y en el cieno. Es tan gruesa cuanto un hombre puede abrazar, y muy larga. Tiene grande cabeza. Tiene barbas tras de la cabeza, como barbas de barbo grande. Es muy negra; reluce de negra. Tiene los ojos como brasas. Tiene horcaxada la cola. Mora en las cuevas
