[tení]an tres pies y cuatro esquinas, que llamábanlos tzicuiltecómatl. Con éstos bebían y daban a beber. Todos andaban muy contentos, muy alegres y muy colorados con el pulcre que bebían en abundancia. Y después de borrachos, riñían los unos con los otros, y apuñábanse y caíanse por ese suelo de borrachos, unos sobre otros, y otros iban abrazados los unos con los otros hacia sus casas. Y esto teníanlo por bueno porque la fiesta lo demandaba así.
\nDespués desta fiesta, como está dicho, siguíanle luego los cinco días que llamaban nemontemi, a los cuales tenían por aciagos, y ninguna cosa osaban hacer en ellos, ni aun barrer la casa, ni había actus judiciarios. A los que en ellos nacían, si era varón, poníanle nombre nemon, o nentlácatl, o nenquizqui, que quiere decir "ni vale nada, ni será para nada, ni habrá provecho dél". Y si era mujer llamábanla nencíhuatl, que quiere decir "mujer para nada".
