macuahuitl [macanas], de metal [espadas], sus arcos, de metal sus escudos, de metal sus lanzas. Y los cargan sus venados, tan altos como tapancos. Y por todas partes envuelven sus cuerpos [los españoles], solamente se ve su rostro, muy blanco; son descoloridos del rostro, amarillos del cabello, si bien algunos tienen sus cabellos negros. Largas son sus barbas y éstas también son amarillas, amarillos de los pelos de las barbas, ondulados, enrollados. Y su comida es como de personas [comida ritual]. Grande, blanca, ligera, como rastrojo, como harina de caña de maíz en tanto sabrosa; un poco dulce, un poco melosa; melosa de comer, dulce de comer. Y sus perros son enormes, tienen las orejas dobladas, hocicos larguísimos. Tienen los ojos como fuego, ojos como brasas de fuego, ojos amarillos, ojos amarillos como fuego. Son delgados del vientre, huesudos del vientre, flacos del vientre; muy altos. No se están quietos, andan jadeando, andan sacando la lengua; son de piel manchada como el jaguar, son pintos. Y cuando oyó esto Moctezuma, se espantó mucho, como si desfalleciera, se preocupó, se inquietó su corazón.
