No sprinkling with holy waters or location of a pitcher of water should be made in these forms of sacrifices. A householder should bathe in the water mixed with herbs, dress in white, put on white flowers, worship the Brâhmaṇas with gold threads. They should also be given fine costumes and Dakṣiṇâ of gold. A white cow should also be given.—146-147.
