Una india consultó a un echizero famoso, el qual dijo que venía de parte del inga a librar a los indios de la muerte, y pidiéndole remedio para una enfermedad que tenía, la hizo ir a una junta de dos ríos y haziéndole ciertos lavatorios, le dijo que allí se le perdonavan sus peccados que eran los que le havían de dar la muerte, y la hizo ofrecer cerca de cinqüenta animalillos, a manera de conejos, que llaman cuyes, y otros semejantes; después le hizo ofrecer y quemar en una grande oguera un animal grande, que acá llaman carneros, aunque son bien diferentes, y que vestida de su pellejo, adorase un árbol para librarse de la morte.
