Having then purified the ghee, he takes thereof four ladlings (with the sruva), both in the guhû and in the upabhrit; and clotted ghee in five ladlings, with (Vâg. S. V, 35), 'Thou art a light endowed with all forms, the flame of the All-gods;' for the clotted ghee belongs to the All-gods. When the wood is well kindled, they hold the spoons for him.
