Imprint at end of text: Con licencia, y privilegio ... Y con prohibicion, que ninguna otra persona sino la dicha Viuda, en toda la Nueva-España pueda imprimir Cartillas, ni Doctrinas, pena de ducientos pesos, y los moldes perdidos

Caption titles in Spanish, text in Latin and Nahuatl

Large woodcut on t.p. of emblem of the Franciscan Order, with two arms and a cross, and a surround with Latin inscription "Si habes brachium sicut Deus," etc. (Job.40), and the roman alphabet underneath; p. [5] recto has "Symbolum Apostolorum" set in ornamental border

According to Icazbalceta (cited by Medina, incorrectly as no. 98) this text was first issued as part of Father Balthasar del Castillo's Cathecismo cenca yn tech ... which has the date of 1683 in the colophon; neither bibliography mentions the 1691 and 1693 issues of the Cartilla mayor
