> And whatever food he does trot bring to him, let him (the Sacrificer) forswear that, and not eat of it as long as he lives: thus he does not go to the end, thus he lives long. Of all that food brought together he offers the (seven) Vâga-prasavanîya oblations, cutting out (pieces) with the dipping-spoon. Thus to whatever deities he is now offering, they give an impulse to him, and impelled by them he wins: therefore he offers the Vâgaprasavanîya oblations.
