Honey-mixture, nectar.' / 'Even if one is polluted or impure, through the mere remembrance of whom one attains purity, for Her is this second water for sipping. / O Goddess, this is water for sipping for You, nectar.' / Now he speaks of the occasions for rinsing the mouth: at the end of bathing, cloth, and sacred thread,
