19. Let it (if possible) be a new one, for the sake of unimpaired vigour. Let him (the Adhvaryu) tell (the Pratiprasthatri) to beat it, in order that whatsoever part of it an unclean woman has spun or woven may become clean. And if it be a new one, let him sprinkle it with water, so that it become clean. Or let him be consecrated in one which is laid aside to be worn (daily) after bathing, without being soaked (in some sharp cleansing substance).
