Lorenzo escribio de esta obra:
"Antes habia una costumbre, en cada cofradia, sacan, una bara, representando una Imagen de la cofradia, donde pertenece el Mayordomo quien porta esta estandarte, y la gente besan el Imagen y responden con una masorca, o un puno de Frijol lo que sea. Esta obra se llama Limosna. El hombre vestido de Pedrano y las mujeres vestido de Tz'ununa, con casa pajisas, es costumbre de antes."

Lorenzo wrote of this painting:
"Before there was a custom in each Cofradia, to make a short staff representing the image of the Cofradia. This belongs to the Mayordomo who carries the standard. The people kiss this Image and respond with an ear of dried corn or a hand-full of dried beans, whatever they have. This painting is call Limosna [Alms]. The man is wearing the dress of San Pedro, and the women are wearing the dress of Tz'ununa. The houses are straw, the custom in times past."
