Daniel G. Brinton, 1890 · 6 verses · Read at the source

7.1I come forth from Chicomoztoc, only to you, my friends, to you, honored ones.

7.2I come forth from Tziuactitlan, only to you my friends, only to you honored ones.

7.3I sought, I sought, in all directions I sought with my pack; in all directions I sought with my pack.

7.4I sought, I sought, in all directions I sought with my traveling net.

7.5I took them in hand, I took them in hand; yes, I took them in hand; yes, I took them in hand.

7.6In the ball ground I sang well and strong, like to the quetzal bird; I answered back to the god.
