Note 181 — Chapter XLII

This word is almost illegible in the Escurial manuscript. Señor Jimenez de la Espada, the Spanish editor, has suvica. The learned Peruvian, Dr. de la Rosa, has sinica. The words for intoxicating liquors in Quichua are acca, azúa, huiñapu, sora. The Spaniards also use the word chicha. But it is not like any of these, unless it be sora.
