\nDespués desta conquista ha estado el camino seguro y libre para entrar a la provincia de Anáhuac sin que nadie impida, ni los tzaputecas ni los anahuacas. Y los quetzales o plumas ricas desde entonces se usan por acá; y primeramente los truxeron los mercaderes de Tlatilulco, y los usaron, y también el señor de México, Ahuitzotzin. Los dichos mercaderes del Tlatilulco se llaman también capitanes y soldados disimulados en hábitu de mercaderes, que discurren por diversas partes, que cercan y dan guerra a las provincias y pueblos. Quísolos señalar el señor Ahuitzotzin con bezotes de oro, que también truxeron de la conquista, que ellos solos usasen y no otros, como mensajeros del rey. Y las otras preseas que les dio, que arriba se dixeron, solos ellos las usasen en las grandes fiestas, como era en la fies[ta].
