English Translation

[Translation of the Nahuatl (right-hand column) by James Lockhart:] “If our lord the god will pay heed, did our lords not take with them all that was brought to our palace when he was there, all of which was turned into bars?” Then Marina replied, “The Captain says, ‘Yes, we took everything that was assembled, and it was stamped. But they made us let it go at the Tolteca canal, they made us drop it there. They are to produce all of it.’” Then the Cihuacoatl Tlacotzin replied, “Let the god, the Captain, pay heed. The Tenochca stand back from boats, it is not their affair; rather the Tlatelolca took it upon themselves alone to fight in boats [Translation of the Spanish (left-hand column) by James Lockhart:] true that we took it all, but they took it all from us in crossing the canal called Toltecaacaloco. It is necessary that it be produced immediately." Then a Mexica leader called Cihuacoatl Tlacotzin answered, saying to Marina, "Tell the god and captain that we Mexica do not fight on the water with canoes, nor do we understand this kind of fighting. Only the Tlatelolca who were fighting on the water intercepted our lords the Spaniards, and we believe that they alone took it." Then Quauhtemoctzin answered, saying to the leader Cihuacoatl, "What are you saying? Although it is true that the Tlatelolca took it, they were apprehended for it and returned it all. It was all assembled in the place Texopan, and it is what is here. There is no more." Then Marina said, "Our Captain says that it is not all here." The leader Cihuacoatl answered, "Perhaps some macehual has taken something. It will be sought and brought into the presence of the Captain."
