porque es como beleños que sacan a los hombres de su juicio, de lo cual mucho se apartaron y temieron los viejos y las viejas y lo tuvieron por cosa muy aborrecible y asquerosa, por cuya causa los senadores y señores pasados ahorcaron a muchos, y a otros quebraron las cabezas con piedras, y a otros muchos azotaron. Éste es el vino que se llama uctli que es raíz y principio de todo mal y de toda perdición, porque este uctli y esta borrachería es causa de toda discordia y disensión, y de todas revueltas y desasosiegos de los pueblos y reinos. Es como un turbellino que todo lo revuelve y desbarata. Es como una tempestad infernal que trae consigo todos los males juntos. Desta borrachera proceden los adulterios estuprus y corrumpción de vírgines y violencia de parientas y afines. Desta borrachería proceden los hurtos y robus y latrocinios y violencias. También proceden las maldiciones y los testimonios y murmuraciones, y detracciones, y las vocerías y riñas y gritos. Todas estas cosas causa el uctli y la borrachera. También es causa el uctli o pulcre de la soberbia y altivez, y tenerse mucha, decir que es de alto linaje, y menosprecia a todos, a ningún estima ni tienen nada. Causa ene[mistades]
