Digo otra vez lo que estuve mirando, que creí que en el mundo hubiese otras tierras descubiertas como éstas, porque en aquel tiempo no había México ni memoria de él. Ahora todo está por el suelo, perdido, que no hay.

I say again what I saw, that I believed that in the world there were other discovered lands like these, because at that time there was neither Mexico nor memory of it. Now everything is on the ground, lost, no longer there.
