Daniel G. Brinton - Rig Veda Americanus - Part 18 lyrics

The Hymn of Atlaua. 1. I Chalmecatl, I Chalmecatl, I leave behind my sandles, I leave my sandles and my helmet. 2. Go ye forth and follow the goddess Quilaztli, follow her 3. I shall call upon thee to arise when among the shields, I shall call upon thee to arise. 4. I boast of my arrows, even my reed arrows, I boast of my arrows, not to be broken. 5. Arrayed in priestly garb, take the arrow in thy band, for even now I shall arise and come forth like the quetzal bird. 6. Mighty is my god Atlaua; truly I shall arise and come forth like the quetzal bird.
