19.1Yes, I shall go there to-night, to the house of flowers; I shall exercise the priestly office to-night.

19.2We labor in thy house, our mother, from dawn unto night, fulfilling the priestly office, laboring in the night.

19.3A dreadful god is our god Tezcatlipoca, he is the only god, he will answer us.

19.4His heart is in the Tezcatzontli; my god is not timid like a hare nor is he peaceable; I shall overturn, I shall penetrate the Mixcoatepec in Colhuacan.

19.5I sing, I play on an instrument, I am the noble instrument, the mirror; I am he who lifts the mirror; I cry aloud, intoxicated with the wine of the tuna.
