The High Priest gave a slight smile, then gestured for Xiulote to speak.
Xiulote thought it over and decided to start with the "Thousand Character Text" he had memorized in the past. This was a primer for enlightenment and had profound implications. By the time he had finished the one thousand characters, a basic textual system had emerged.
So, the young man straightened his back, pointing to the topmost plank, he began to speak solemnly:
"Ilhuicatl, tlalli, tliltic, coztic; the universe, ixachipul, huahcatzin."
"Heaven and earth are dark and high, the vast universe is infinitely great and also infinitely distant. The azure sky is black, the great earth is yellow, the boundless universe is infinite in size, and also infinite in extent."
Here, 'heaven and earth' and 'vast' were read phonetically in Nahuatl. The young man carefully considered that the concept of the universe was not clear in this era, so he still used the phonetic reading of the Chinese characters.
