La quinta señal o pronóstico fue que se levantó la mar de México con grandes olas. Parecía que hervía sin hacer aire ninguno, la cual nunca se suele levantar sin gran vieto. Llegaron las olas muy lexos y entraron entre las casas; sacudían en los cimientos de las casas; algunas casas cayeron. Fue grande el espanto de todos por ver que sin aire se había de tal manera embravecido el agua.
\nLa sesta señal o pronóstico es que se oía en el aire de noche una voz de mujer que decía: "¡Oh, hijos míos, ya nos perdemos!" Algunas veces decía: "¡Oh, hijos míos! ¿Dónde os llevaré?"
\nLa séptima señal o pronóstico es que los cazadores de las aves del agua cazaron una ave parda del tamaño de una grulla, y luego la fueron a mostrar a Motecuzoma, que estaba en una sala que llamaban Tlillancalmécac. Era después de medio dia. Tenía

The fifth sign or omen was that the sea [lake] of Mexico rose up with great waves. It seemed to boil, although there was no wind and it ordinarily never rises without strong winds. The waves reached a great distance and came in among the houses, shaking their foundations, and some houses fell. Great was the fright of all to see that without wind the water should have become so wild.
\nThe sixth sign or omen is that in the night air the voice of a woman was heard, saying, "O my children, we are about to be lost." Sometimes she said, "O my children, where am I to take you?"
\nThe seventh sign or omen is that the hunters of waterfowl caught a dark bird the size1 of a crane, and then they went to show it to Moteucçoma, who was in a hall that they called Tlillan calmecac. This was after midday.

The fifth omen was that the water [of the lake] boiled up; it was not the wind that caused it. It bubbled and made exploding sounds, rising high in the air. It reached the foundations of the houses; it flooded them, and they collapsed. This is the great lake that extends around us here in Mexico.
\nThe sixth omen was that many times a woman would be heard going along weeping and shouting. She cried out loudly at night, saying, “Oh my children, we are about to go forever.” Sometimes she said, “Oh my children, where am I to take you?”
\nThe seventh omen was that once the water folk were hunting or snaring and caught an ash-colored bird, like a crane. Then they went to the Tlillan calmecac to show it to Moteucçoma; the sun was inclining,1 it was still full day. On top of its head was something like

Quinto tetzahuitl: hirvió el agua [del lago], no la hizo hervir el viento. Fue como si burbujeara, como si burbujeara ruidosamente. Muy lejos iba, en tanto se levantó. Y alcanzó los cimientos de las casas, y se anegaron, se derrumbaron las casas. Esto fue en el agua grande [lago] que se extiende junto a nosotros aquí en México.
\nSexto tetzahuitl: muchas veces se escuchaba a una mujer que iba llorando, iba gritando; por la noche mucho grita, anda diciendo: “Hijitos míos, ya vamos a irnos”. Algunas veces dice: “Hijitos míos, a dónde voy a llevármelos”.
\nSéptimo tetzahuitl: una vez, [cuando] la gente del agua estaba pescando con redes o cazando con redes, agarraron un ave cenicienta, semejante a una grulla. Enseguida, fueron a enseñársela a Moctezuma, en el Tlillan [lugar negro], en el Calmécac. Declinaba el sol, pero aún era de día. Encima de [la grulla]
