carry food, filth is produced from it [2]. One should sacrifice by oneself, for Prajapati prospered by
himself. One should be consecrated for twelve nights; the year consists of twelve months, Prajapati
is the year, he is Prajapati, he is born indeed who is born from fervour. The twelve Upasads are
these four sets of three nights; with the first three he prepares the sacrifice, with the second three he
grasps the sacrifice [3], with the third three he cleanses the vessels, and with the fourth three he
purifies himself within. He who eats his victim, eats his flesh, who eats his sacrificial cake, eats his
brains, who eats his fried grain, eats his excrement, who eats his ghee, eats his marrow, who eats his
Soma, eats his sweat, and also he eats the excrements from his head, who accepts (a present) at the
twelve-day (rite). Therefore one should not cause one to sacrifice with the twelve-day (rite), to avert
evil.
