Fue dicho a Motecuzoma cómo los españoles traían una india mexicana, que se llamaba Marina, vecina del pueblo de Tetícpac, que es a la orilla de la mar del Norte, y que traían esta por intérprete, que decía en la lengua mexicana todo lo que el capitán don Hernando Cortés la mandaba.
\nLuego Motecuzoma comenzó a enviar mensajeros y principales a donde estaban los españoles para que mirasen lo que se hacía y procurasen lo que era menester al servicio de las españoles. Cada día iban unos y volvían otros; no paraban mensajeros que iban y venían. Y los españoles no cesaban de preguntar por Motecuzoma, queriendo saber qué persona era, si era viejo o si era mozo o si era de media edad o si tenía canas. Respon[dían]

He began to experience great fear, and not he alone but all those who heard the news just mentioned. All wept and were anxious, going about melancholy and with head down. They formed small groups and spoke with shock of the news that had come. The mothers, weeping, took their children in their arms, and patting their heads said, "O my child, you have been born in a bad time! What great things you are to see! You are to be in great travails!"
\nMoteucçoma was told how the Spaniards were bringing along with them a Mexica [Nahuatl-speaking] Indian woman called Marina, a citizen of the settlement of Teticpac, on the shore of the North Sea [Caribbean], who served as interpreter and said in the Mexican language everything that Captain don Hernando Cortés told her to.
\nThen Moteucçoma began to send messengers and leading figures to where the Spaniards were to see what was going on and provide what was necessary for the service of the Spaniards. Every day some were leaving and others returning; messengers were constantly coming and going.
\nAnd the Spaniards were continually asking after Moteucçoma, wanting to know what kind of a person he was, whether he was old or young or of middle age, or gray-haired. The Mexica Indians replied 1

was very afraid. Fear reigned, and shock, laments, and expressions of distress. People talked, assembled, gathered, wept for themselves and for others. Heads hung, there were tearful greetings, words of encouragement, and stroking of hair. Little children’s heads were stroked. Fathers would say, “Alas, my children, how is it with you, that what is about to happen has happened to you?” And mothers said, “Oh my children, how is it with you who are to behold what is about to happen to us?”
\nAnd it was told, presented, made known, announced, and reported to Moteucçoma, and brought to his attention, that a woman, one of us people here, came accompanying them as interpreter. Her name was Marina and her homeland was Tepeticpac, on the coast, where they first took her.
\nAnd then at this time the messengers who saw in each place to everything [the Spaniards] needed began hardly to pause [on arrival in Mexico], but to run right back [from whence they came].
