There we shall be, we shall keep guard,

we shall await, we shall meet diverse peoples in battle.

With our bellies, with our heads,

with our arrows, with our shields,

we shall confront all who surround us

we shall vanquish [conquer] them all,

we shall make them our captives,

and thus our city shall be established.

    Answer: d. take them prisoner

    Explanation: Indeed, the sentence is very clear: "we shall make them our captives." Aztecs took prisoners for two purposes: to sacrifice them to their gods, and for commoner soldiers, to climb up the social ladder and the capture of prisoners was rewarded with a higher rank in society or the army.
