Brilliant they were then<br />
And wrapped in the feathers of quetzal<br />
And of doves.<br />
Thence came the name<br />
Of Kulkulkán, the Quetzal-serpent.<br />
Great sages they were<br />
And great thinkers in their essence.<br />
For indeed there is Heaven,<br />
And there is also the Heart of Heaven<br />
That is the name<br />
Of the deity, it is said.<br />
—Popol Vuh, sacred book of the<br />
K’iche’-Maya of Guatemala
