Avisos para que los Naturales de estos Reynos sean felices en lo espiritual, y temporal (Mexico, 1769)

Fourteen instructions the archbishop of Mexico had printed in 1769 for parish priests to read out to their indigenous parishioners: raised and separated beds, a fowl for the sick neighbour, a trade for every man over twenty-five, houses built for rational creatures, quarrels settled without lawyers, a school of Castilian, and a bar on selling their own land because in law they are minors. The same list tells them to speak Castilian to superiors and to marry within their caste.
