Ancient Mexico.
At the birth Of a
boy, his parents at
once dedicated him to
the service of the
gods. While still
young, he was sent
either to the House
Of the Bachelors or
to the Calmecac. The
former was a kind of
clubhouse, in which
the unmarried men
spent the night and
the younger men
were instructed by
the older warriors
in the profession of
arms. The latter was
more like a monas-

young men were in

deceased as follows:

suffered and passed
the woes of this life
