First sentence: On April 28, 1688, a long procession moved out of Mexico City, along the causeways that crossed the nearby lakes, and through the small towns and farms of the plateau, on its way toward the pass between the two volcanoes Iztaccihuatl and Popocatepetl, both more than sixteen thousand feet high, and down to the tropical port of Vera Cruz.
