En entrando en las casas donde suelen juntarse los convidados, que están cercados de un patio, como celdas, poníanse cada uno en su aposento. Estas mujeres, yendo a la casa del convite, iban de cinco en cinco, y de seis en seis. Entraban a la casa de las mujeres, donde hacen la comida, y poníanse cabe las puertas, donde hacían pan. Y tenían allí el maíz que habían traído; y después echábanlo sobre un petate; y luego les daban comida. Después de haber comido, no les daban cacao, sino atulli, que se llama chianpitzáhuac. Dábanselo en unas escudillas que se llaman pochtecayocáxitl, pintadas de blanco. Estas mismas mujeres, antes desto, habían dado cada cual una manta de ichtli al que hacía la fiesta para que comprasen leña para la comida y para ayuda de costa. Ésta era costumbre entre todos los que hacían banquetes. Y también a los que murían daban estas mantas. Decían que para envolverlos. Poníanlas encima del cuerpo, como ofrecidas. Cuando comían, cesaba el baile y el canto. Y por aquel día no había más.
\nOtro día siguiente, comían y bebían y daban cañas
