²²⁸⁹ अग्निहोत्रहवणीमुखास्रुपवेषं शाखापवित्रमभिधानीं निदाने दोहनमपस्त्याचं द्यावपात्रं वा पिधानार्थम् । सत्याषाढ I. 3. p. 93. These are eight. Vide Āp. I. 11. 5 for these. For agni-hotrahavanī and upaveṣa vide notes 2263 and 2288 above. *Ukhā* is the same as the kumbhī of Āp. *Ukhā* is an earthen vessel or pan. *Abhidhānī* is a rope for tying the cow (or the calf according to com. on Āp.). The two *nidānas* are ropes for tying the hind feet of the cow near her hoofs and knees. *Dohana* is the pot in which the cow is milked. There is a wooden or metal lid to cover the dohana. *Śākhāpavitra* is made from the branch out of which the upaveṣa was prepared and consists in the top of that branch which is tied round with three darbhas like a braid (according to Śr. P. N.).
