Sûta:—I shall explain to you, O Lord of the world, the rites of dedicating as well as those prescribed for the laying out groves. One should follow the rites, as dictated for the consecration of a tank, and should then plant the trees; the Ritvijas, the pavilion and the Âchâryas should be arranged in the same way, and the Brâhmaṇas should be adored with sandal paste, &c.—3-4.
