CHAPTER VI

fourth canticle in Sahagun’s collection, which has been translated as follows:

I

Oh, Mexico has done service with the gods,

The paper flags fly over the four corners of the heavens,

II

Oh, Tlaloc (the Rain-god) has been created

(I.e. my statue has been set on the temple),

My God has become a dark red colour
