On the full-moon day of \u00c2svayuga milk-rice sacred to Rudra (is prepared).\n2. He should offer it with (the Mantra), 'Not to our children.'\n3. Let him pour \u00c2gya into milk; this is called a Prish\u00e2taka.\n4. Therewith he should besprinkle the cows when they have come home, with (the Mantra), 'May Mitra and Varuna' (S\u00e2ma-veda I, 220).\n5. That night he should let the calves join their mothers.\n6. At the sacrifice of the first-fruits, milk-rice sacred to Indra and Agni (is prepared).\n7. Let him sacrifice \u00c2gya with the four (verses), 'To the bearer of the hundred weapons' (MB.

Having 'spread under' water, he should cut off two portions of the new fruits.\n3, 1. \u00e2svayug\u00eem Rudr\u00e2ya p\u00e2yaso. 2. m\u00e2 nas toka iti guhuy\u00e2t. 3. payasy avanayed \u00e2gyam tat prish\u00e2takam. 4. ten\u00e2bhy\u00e2gat\u00e2 g\u00e2 ukshed \u00e2 no Mitr\u00e2varuneti. 5. vats\u00e2ms ka m\u00e2tribhis saha v\u00e2sayet tam r\u00e2tr\u00eem. 6. navayag\u00f1e p\u00e2yasa aindr\u00e2gnah. 7. sat\u00e2yudh\u00e2yeti katasribhir \u00e2gyam guhuy\u00e2d. 8. uparisht\u00e2d Agnih pr\u00e2sn\u00e2tv iti ka. 9. tasya sesham pr\u00e2sn\u00eeyur y\u00e2vanta upet\u00e2. 10. upast\u00eery\u00e2po dvir navasy\u00e2vadyet.\n11.

In the evening let him make an oblation of milk-rice with (the verse), 'As the first' (MB. II, 2, 1).\n19. Turning downwards his two hands (so as to touch the sacrificial grass) he should murmur (the Mantra), 'In worldly strength' (l.l. 2, 3).\n20. Having spread out to the west of the fire a layer of northward-pointed grass, so that it is inclined towards the north, the householder sits down on that layer,\n21. (And) the other persons in due order.\n22. Then, without an interval, their wives,\n11. trir Bhrig\u00fbn\u00e2m. 12. ap\u00e2\u00f1 koparisht\u00e2d. 13. bhadr\u00e2n na ity asamkh\u00e2dya pragiret tris trir. 14. etam u tyam iti v\u00e2 yav\u00e2n\u00e2m. 15. amo\u093ds\u00eeti mukhy\u00e2n pr\u00e2n\u00e2n abhimrised. 16. \u00e2grah\u00e2yanam karma sr\u00e2vanenaiva vy\u00e2khy\u00e2tam. 17. namah Prithivy\u00e2 iti gapet (read, iti na gapet?). 18. pradoshe p\u00e2yasasya guhuy\u00e2t prathameti. 19. nya\u00f1kau p\u00e2n\u00ee kritv\u00e2 prati kshatra iti gapet. 20. pask\u00e2d agne svastaram udagagrais trinair udakpravanam \u00e2st\u00eerya tasminn \u00e2starane grihapatir \u00e2ste. 21. \u093dnup\u00fbrvam itare. 22. \u093dnantar\u00e2 bh\u00e2ry\u00e2h.\n23. And their children.\n24. The householder, turning his hands downwards (so as to touch the layer of grass), should murmur (the Mantra), 'Be soft' (l.l. 4).\n25. When he has finished that (verse), they should lie down on their right sides. They should turn round three times, turning themselves towards themselves (i.e. turning round forwards, not backwards, and thus returning to their former position?).\n26. Let them repeat the auspicious hymns.\n27. Then let them do what they like.\n28. The eighth days of the three dark fortnights after the \u00c2grah\u00e2yan\u00ee are called the Ashtak\u00e2s.\n29.
