18. Once he puts (butter with the sruva) into the juhu with this formula, three times silently. With the same formula he puts (butter) once into the upabhrit, seven times silently. With the same formula he puts once (butter) into the dhruva, three times silently. Now, as to this, they say, “Thrice he should take with the formula in each case, for threefold is the sacrifice.” Nevertheless (it is done) only once with each (spoon), for it is just in this way that the taking thrice (with a formula) is accomplished.
