C. Hermann Berendt's 19th-century copy of the text of a musical drama in a Nahuatl-Spanish dialect named after one of its characters, with the satirical meaning, "the honored elder." The drama dates from the late 18th century or earlier. Other characters include a governor, a royal scribe, and local officials. Daniel Garrison Brinton's annotations in red ink (linguistic corrections to Berendt's text) and pencil (page number correspondences to publication) are later additions.
