Feast of human corpses.
severity of an undeferrable ritual!

Feathers,
chalk,
rage,
invocations of god of war.

Feast,
stone,
flesh,
jade will!

Pay tributes and exploits of thy untamed glory!
Let-us-oh-God! of war covet the blaze.

Of immolation and the clash that precedes the victory.
Let-us-oh-God! clothe us with the skin of the prisoners!
Grant to the Técpatl split an arrogant affront to the flesh.
Give us spirit and fortitude…
Give us!
