The Memoirs of the Conquistador Bernal Diaz del Castillo, Vol 1 (of 2)

Note 69* — Chapter XCV

John Ingram Lockhart translation

Bernal Diaz only mentions three of these generals by name: Quetzalpopoca, Coatl, and Quiahuitle, which we thought better to insert here. When Quetzalpopoca, says Torquemada, was brought into the presence of the Spaniards, and asked whether he was a vassal of Motecusuma, he replied: "Is it possible in this world to be the vassal of any other monarch." (p. 253.)
