\nDespués de haber compuestas estas imágines, poníanlas en orden en el oratorio de la casa, y luego ponían comida a cada una por sí. Delante dellas sentábanse, y los tamales que las ponían eran muy chiquitos, conforme a las imágines, que eran muy pequeñitas.

En una noche los presentaban comida desta manera, cuatro veces. También los ponían dos tecomates de calabaza verde, que se llama tzilacayotli.
