On the signification of the titles given to this poem see the
Introduction, § 3.
1. _yehnan Dios_; literally "who are God;" the introduction of the
Spanish _Dios_, God, is in explanation of _in tloque in nahuaque_; so
far from proving that this song is of late date, this vouches for its
genuine ancient character, through the necessity for such
explanation.
2. _nelhuayotl_, the essence or source of something, its true nature;
probably from _nelli_, true.
_teoquecholme_; the prefix _teotl_, divine, is often added as an
expression of admiration. Sahagun mentions the _teoquechol_ as a bird
of brilliant plumage.
