TRANSLATION

Hail! thou who art my Lord, my Morning Star and my Guide. Hither did we come to roast in this thy court, all of us who here are seated in thy court. There thou didst seat thyself and didst cry unto Him who is thy Lord and thy Lady who was created beneath the east. There is hung thy jicam with all thy arrows and thy chimales beneath thy white carpet o'erspread with drizzly clouds. There ariseth the cloud whence came the lightnings and the voice beneath the seven beautiful heavens. Thence it cometh speak- ing and drizzling.

2 Probably a direct translation of the Spanish idiom hasta que no in the sense of UNTIL.
