\nEstando ordenados desta manera, tocaban las cornetas y caracoles, y luego comenzaban a ir por su camino adelante. Esta procesión se hacía para llevar a los que habían hecho algún defeto de los que se dixeron atrás, al lugar donde los habían de castigar, y así los llevaban presos en esta procesión. Llevábanlos asidos por los cabellos del cogote, para que no se huyesen. A algunos dellos llevaban asidos por los mastles que llevaban ceñidos, y los muchachos sacristanejos que también habían hecho algún defeto, llevábanlos puesto sobre los hombros, sentados en un sentaderuelo hecho de espadañas verdes, y los otros muchachos que eran mayostillos llevaban asidos de la mano. Y llevándolos al agua donde los habían de castigar, arrojábanlos en el agua dondequiera que hallaban alguna laguna en el camino, y maltratábanlos de poñadas y coces y enpellones, y los arronjaban y los revolcaban en el lodo de cualquier laguna que estaban en el camino. Desta manera los llevaban hasta la orilla del agua donde los habían de zabulir, la cual llamaban Totecco. Allegados a la orilla del agua, el sátrapa y los otros ministros quemaban papel en sacrificio, y las formas de copal que llevaban y las imágines de ulli, y echaban encienso en el fuego. Y otro derramaban alrededor, sobre las esteras de juncia con que estaba ordenado aquel lugar. Juntamente con esto, los que llevaban los culpados arronjábanlos en el agua, cuyos golpes hacían gran estruendo en el agua, y alzaban el agua echándole en alto, por razón de los que caían en ella. Y los que salían arriba, tornában[los]
