y otro hilo colorado, y una manta y un maxtli, y las naguas y camisas. Y todo hato de mujer defuncta que dexaba en el mundo, todo lo tenían envuelto desde que se muría.
\nA los ochenta días lo quemaban, y lo mesmo hacían al cabo del año, y a los dos años, y a los tres años, y a los cuatro años. Estonces se acababan y cumplían las obsequias, según tenían costumbre, porque decían que todas las ofrendas que hacían por los defunctos en este mundo iban delante el diablo que se decía Mictlantecuhtli. Y después de pasados cuatro años, el defuncto se sale y se va a los nueve infiernos, donde está y pasa un río muy ancho, y allí viven y andan perros en la ribera del río por donde pasan los defunctos nadando, encima de los perritos. Dicen que el defunto que llega a la ribera del río arriba dicho, luego mira el perro. Si conoce a su amo, luego se echa nadando al río, hacia la otra parte donde está su amo, y le pasa a cuestas. Por esta causa los naturales solían tener y criar los perritos para este efecto. Y más decían, que los perros de pelo blanco y negro no podían nadar y pasar
