de los ídolos demandaban a los dueños de la casa aquel instrumento para texer que llaman tzotzopaztli, y mentíansele por los pechos a las imágines de los montes, como matándoles, y cortábanle el cuello y sacábanle el corazón, y luego le daban al dueño de la casa puesto en una xícara verde.
\nHabiendo ya muerto como está dicho todas aquellas imágines o estatuas, quitábanlos los papeles con que estaban aderezadas, y todo junto los quemaban en el patio de la casa, y con ellos quemaban también los xicatillos1 de la comida, y todos los petates de juncias verdes con que estaban adornadas aquellas imágines, y todas las alhajas en que habían puesto comida y bebida a las imágines o estatuas. Todo lo llevaba a los oratorios que llaman ayauhcalco, que estaban edificados a la orilla del agua.
\nHecho esto, luego se juntaban
\nDebe decir "caxitillos".↩
of the idols would ask the homeowners for that weaving instrument called tzotzopaztli, which they would insert into the chests of the images of the mountains, as if they were killing them; and then they would cut [the images’] necks and tear out their hearts, which they would then place in a green jícara and give to the homeowner.
\nHaving already killed all those images or statues, as has been described, they would then take the paper with which they were dressed off of them and burn everything thing together in the patio of the house; and along with this, they would also burn the little bowls of food, all the petates made of green reeds that had been adorning those images, and all the precious objects in which they had placed any food or drink for the images or statues. Everything would then be taken to the shrines that they call ayauhcalco, which were built on the water’s shore.
\nHaving done this, the guests would then gather together
