> He then prepares the Prâyanîya (opening sacrifice). With the Havishkrit of that (oblation) he releases (the Sacrificer's) speech. Having released his speech, he throws away the grass-bush (stambayagus). Having thrown away the grass-bush, and drawn the first line of enclosure, and the lines (across the mahâ-vedi), he says, 'Throw thrice!' and the Âgnîdhra throws thrice (the wooden sword).
