3. Here now some utter the call after taking sacrificial grass (barhis) from the covered altar, or they utter the call after cutting off and taking a chip of fire-wood, arguing, “this, surely, is something belonging to the sacrifice; after taking hold of this, the sacrifice, we will utter the call.” Let him, however, not do this; for that also wherewith the firewood was tied together and wherewith they sweep the fire is, doubtless, something belonging to the sacrifice; and thus indeed he utters his call after taking hold of the sacrifice: for this reason let him utter the call after taking the fuel-band.
