[Translation of the Nahuatl (right-hand column) by James Lockhart:] Once it happened that the Spaniards appeared at Totecco, and when they got to where the youths’ house stood, at the place called Ayacac, they set fire to it. And another of the Spaniards’ boats came into Atliceuhyan, and many boats of the Xochimilco people came in along with it. And the warrior Temilotzin, the Tlacateccatl, stood up on an altar platform facing the Spaniards. And the warrior Coyohuehuetzin, who had put on an eagle-jaguar device, eagle on one side and jaguar on the other, came in a boat from the direction of Tolmayeccan to repulse them. Many war boats accompanied him. He came saying, “Oh warriors, up and at them, let’s all get going!” Then they all ran to their boats. And when the Spaniards saw them, they retreated. [The Mexica] pursued them, coming straight to Atliceuhyan. Then the Spaniards withdrew their boats [Translation of the Spanish (left-hand column) by James Lockhart:] Again the Spaniards attacked and reached a place called Ayacac, where there is a large house called a telpochcalli; they set fire to the house. One of the Spaniards' brigantines was going through the district called Atliceuhyan with many canoes of the friends following it. A Mexica captain called Coyohuehuetzin, who had on some insignia that were half an eagle and the other half a tiger, came in a canoe toward the place called Tolmayeccan, many canoes full of armed men following him. Then he began to shout to his followers to begin to fight; then the battle began, and the Spaniards withdrew. This captain with his followers pursued them, and they withdrew toward a place called Atliceuhyan. The brigantines also withdrew toward the lake. In this pursuit many Xochimilca died. Another time
