Visto esto, los españoles luego subieron al cu con mucha orden, y llevaban sus escopetas y ballestas. Comenzaron a subir muy despacio y tiraban con las ballestas y escopetas a los de arriba. En cada rencle iba delante un escopetero, y luego un soldado con espada y rodela, y luego un alabardero; por esta orden iban subiendo al cu. Y los de arriba echaban los maderos por las gradas del cu abaxo; pero ningún daño hicieron a los españoles. Y llegando a lo alto del cu, comenzaron a herir y matar a los que estaban arriba, y muchos dellos se desperaban* por el cu abaxo. Finalmente, todos murieron los que habían subido al cu. Tornáronse los españoles a su fuerte y barreáronse muy bien. Los mexicanos enterraron a los que allí murieron, porque toda era gente principal y de mucha cuenta en la guerra.

They began to go up very slowly, shooting the1 crossbows and muskets at those above. In each row a musketeer went ahead, then a soldier with sword and shield, and then a halberdier. In this order they went climbing up the cu. Those above hurled the timbers down the steps of the cu, but they did no damage to the Spaniards. Reaching the top of the cu, they started striking and killing those who were up there.
\nMany of them threw themselves off headlong,2 and finally all who had climbed the cu died. The Spaniards returned to their fort and barricaded themselves very well.
\nThe Mexica buried those who died there, because they were all leading people, of great weight in the war.

But the Spaniards shot back with iron bolts and guns; many people were hit by bolts and guns. The crossbowman aimed the bolt well, he pointed it right at the person he was going to shoot, and when it went off, it went whining, hissing, and humming. And the arrows missed nothing, they all hit someone, went all the way through someone. The guns were pointed and aimed right at people. When they were fired, everyone went down, was pressed to the ground; the people lying there were like a mattress. It came upon people unawares, giving no warning when it killed them. However many were fired at died, when some dangerous part
