y muy polidas, que son los consejos para bien vivir, en que ni hay raza ni mancha. Son muy limpios. Dixéronlos los que perfectamente vivieron en este mundo. Son como piedras preciosas que se llaman chalchihuites y zafiros muy resplandecientes delante nuestro señor, y son como plumas ricas muy finas y muy anchas y muy enteras que están arcoadas. Y tales son los que las tienen en costumbre. Llámanse personas de buen corazón.
\nMira, hijo, que los viejos nos dexaron dicho que los niños y las niñas, o mancebitos y doncellas, son muy amados de Dios. Précialos mucho nuestro señor que está en toda parte. Huélgase con ellos y tiénelos por amigos. Y por esto los viejos, que eran muy dados al culto divino y a la penitencia y a los ayunos, y a ofrecer incienso a los dioses, tuvieron en gran precio a los niños y a las niñas que oraban, y despertábanlos de noche al mejor sueño, y desnudábanlos y rociábanlos con agua, y hacíalos barrer
