The adhvaryu then takes up the upaveṣa and conceals it inside the dust of the utkara (vide Āp. III. 13. 6) and if it is desired to practise magic against one's enemy, then he throws the upaveṣa on the utkara after taking the enemy's name (Āp. III. 14. 1, Sat. II. 6. p. 237). Vide Tai. Br. III. 3. 11 for the upaveṣa and the mantras. The adhvaryu takes leave of the Yajña with 'Let him who yokes you discharge you' (Tai. S. I. 5. 10. 3 quoted in Sat. II. 6. p. 237) and passes his eye over the whole sacrificial ground.²⁴²⁴ Then he discharges the kapālas with 'the kapālas that were in the cauldron' (Tai. S. I. 5. 10. 3-4 quoted in Sat. II. 6. p. 237), counts them and keeps them aside. Then the adhvaryu goes out. The brahmā also places a fuel-stick on fire with 'the fire has been worshipped &c.' (Āp. III. 13. 1 and Sat. II. 8. p. 261) and then leaves by the way he came.
