yāvato grasate grāsān havyakavyeṣv amantravit
tāvato grasate preto dīptaśūlarṣṭyayoguḍān //

As many mouthfuls as an ignorant man swallows at a sacrifice to the gods or to the manes, so many red-hot spikes, spears, and iron balls must (the giver of the repast) swallow after death.

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
