Probably Cb14-17 refers to 'the Deluge', illustrated as a creature who is 'belching out waters':

The last page of the Mayan Dresden Codex defines the End of the previous 'Creation' (not the last because biological times move in cycles).
Metoro told Bishop Jaussen that 'the Earth' (te henua) was here 'cut apart' (kokoti) and that it was a position to be counted with (hia).
| Koti Kotikoti. To cut with scissors (since this is an old word and scissors do not seem to have existed, it must mean something of the kind). Vanaga.
Kotikoti. To tear; kokoti, to cut, to chop, to hew, to cleave, to assassinate, to amputate, to scar, to notch, to carve, to use a knife, to cut off, to lop, to gash, to mow, to saw; kokotiga kore, indivisible; kokotihaga, cutting, gash furrow. P Pau.: koti, to chop. Mgv.: kotikoti, to cut, to cut into bands or slices; kokoti, to cut, to saw; akakotikoti, a ray, a streak, a stripe, to make bars. Mq.: koti, oti, to cut, to divide.

In the Arab structure there was a pair of lunar stations with names referring to this great inundation ('spout', koti) at the end of the old solar year ('the old creation'), but they came earlier than in March 27:

In the Dresden Codex we can perceive 2 + 1 'belches' (from right to left regarded because this was the Mayan custom for ordering things according to the 'arrow of time'). If the Arabs had 2 'spouts', then possibly these could correspond to the first 2 (smaller ones) in the Mayan book and the last (great) spout to Cb14-17.
We can expect the creator of the glyph text to have been an expert at counting. March 21 was 354 (= 12 * 29½) days after April 1 and I imagine a reason to count at Cb14-17 might have been the fact that March 27 was the first of 5 dark nights before April 1, perhaps thought of as 5 nights when 'Gods' were born:
... Nut, whom the Greeks sometimes identified with Rhea, was goddess of the sky, but it was debatable if in historical times she was the object of a genuine cult. She was Geb's twin sister and, it was said, married him secretly and against the will of Ra. Angered, Ra had the couple brutally separated by Shu and afterwards decreed that Nut could not bear a child in any given month of any year. Thoth, Plutarch tells us, happily had pity on her. Playing draughts with the Moon, he won in the course of several games a seventy-second part of the Moon's light with which he composed five new days.
As these five intercalated days did not belong to the official Egyptian calendar of three hundred and sixty days, Nut was thus able to give birth successively to five children: Osiris, Haroeris (Horus), Set, Isis and Nepthys.
A quick look back in time (to satisfy our curiosity), back to the place of 'the Fore Spout' among the glyphs, leads us to the last glyph in line Cb13:

Here Metoro said oho te vae, which would have been quite meaningless for us without knowing the scenario. This is where the first 'Spout' would inundate the 'Earth' (and legs no longer would be the appropriate means of locomotion).
A leg (vae) is depicted in Cb13-25 and oho means 'to leave'.

Cb13-25 (324) |
| Oho 1. To go: ka-oho! go! go away! (i.e. 'goodbye' said by the person staying behind); ka-oho-mai (very often contracted to: koho-mai), welcome! (lit.: come here); ku-oho-á te tagata, the man has gone. Ohoga, travel, direction of a journey; ohoga-mai, return. 2. Also rauoho, hair. Vanaga.
1. To delegate; rava oho, to root. 2. To go, to keep on going, to walk, to depart, to retire; ka oho, begone, good-bye; oho amua, to preced; oho mai, to come, to bring; oho arurua, to sail as consorts; hakaoho, to send, a messenger. 3. Tehe oho te ikapotu, to abut, adjoin; mei nei tehe i oho mai ai inei te ikapotu, as far as, to; kai oho, to abstain, to forego; hakaoho, to put on the brakes. 4. The head (only in the composite rauoho, hair). Churchill. |
The legs could be left behind because ahead was 'water' everywhere.
