Summary Book of sermons and prayers in Cakchikel, compiled in 1662 by Father Antonio del Saz. Preliminary materials--a dedication to one of Father Saz's superiors, and a note to the reader--are followed by sermons relating to each of the seven sacraments.  A baptismal sermon discusses the important role of godparents in raising a child; and there are several sermons to proceed and follow the administration of communion.  The discourse on confession contains the Act of Contrition as well.  Other sermons concern the administration of the viaticum, last rites, and the marriage ceremony; the special dignity of members of the priesthood; the installation of alcaldes and other officials of religious societies ("cofradías"); the granting of indulgences; festivals and fasts which good Christians must observe; and miracles and punishments as proofs of God's existence.  Finally, there is a confession, containing questions for each of the Ten Commandments and for certain professions; and several prayers for communion and confession.
