[Mote]cuzoma y también Ilhuicamina. Todos estos señores y reyes regieron y gobernaron, y gozaron de señorío y dignidad real y del trono y sitial del imperio, los cuales ordenaron y concertaron las cosas de vuestro reino, que sois el universal señor y emperador, por cuyo albedrío y motivo se rige todo el universo, y que no tenéis necesidad de consejo de ningún otro. Estos dichos ya dexaron la carga intolerable del regimiento que truxeron sobre sus hombros, y lo dexaron a su sucesor N, el cual algunos pocos días tuvo en pie su señorío y reino, y agora ya se ha ido en pos de ellos al otro mundo, porque vos le llamastes. Y por haberle descargado de tan gran carga, y haberle quitado tan gran trabaxo y haberle puesto en paz y en reposo, está muy obligado haceros gracias.
\nAlgunos pocos días le logramos, y agora para siempre se ausentó de nosotros para nunca más volver al mundo. ¿Por ventura fue a alguna parte de donde otra vez pueda volver acá, para que otra vez sus vasallos puedan ver su cara? ¿Por ventura vendrános a decir hágase esto o aquello? ¿Vendrá por ventura
