Another issue of this broadside, with a different setting of type and smaller in size, was authorized in Puebla de los Angeles and printed by the widow of Juan de Borja y Gandia, in 1662.

This broadside served as a reminder to inhabitants of Puebla that they must pay church tithes on farm products and produce. Distinctions were made between tithes expected of Spaniards, as well as all others who were not Indians. Tithes due from the first category of inhabitants included  grain, corn, chick peas, pine nuts, cocoa, fruit, maguey, tobacco, cotton, mules, butter, milk, cheese, silk, sugar, honey vinegar, fish, beef, cattle, chickens, doves, pigeons, hides, vanilla, chilies, and many other. Landowners owed a tithe on corn, mantas, and other agricultural products" which the Indians paid to them in tribute. Products listed that were subject to tithes to be paid by Indians included were also wide ranging, but somewhat less extensive. Finally, there was a list of products for which native Americans are exempt from paying tithes on, including cacao, cotton, chilies, vanilla, pulque, maguey, among others.

Text of broadsheet printed in three columns separated by ornaments.
