Cuando iban a entrar en aquellas provincias, que ya habían pasado de Tochtépec, todos iban a punto de guerra, con sus rodelas y con sus espadas, como ellos las usaban, y con sus banderas, porque pasaban por tierra de guerra. En algunas partes recebían daño de los enemigos; en otras partes captivaban dellos. Desque llegaban a Xicalanco, daban el presente que llevaban de mantas y naoas y huipiles y maxtles muy labradas y ricas. Dábanlas como está dicho a los principales.
\nY luego también los mercaderes sacaban las joyas de oro y piedras que sabían que eran preciosas en aquella provincia, una de las cuales se llama tepeyo teucuítlatl, que era como corona de oro; y otra que se llama teucuitlaixcuaámatl, que era una plancha de oro delgada y flexible que se ceñía a la frente; y otra que se llamaba teucuitlatlancózcatl, y otra que se llamaba pitzáhuac teucuitlacózcatl. Todas estas joyas eran para los señores. Llevaban también otras para las señoras. Una dellas eran vasitos de oro donde ponen el huso cuando hilan; otras eran orejeras de oro; otras, orejeras de cristal.
