7. Now as to those who burst their Soma-trough (kalasha). If the trough bursts, let him say, “Try to catch it!” If they catch a handful or a goupenful (of Soma), let them perform, as far as is in their power, after pouring (water) to it from other ekadhana pitchers. But if they do not catch any, let them perform, as far as is in their power, after pouring out some of the Agrayana and pouring (water) thereto from other ekadhana pitchers. And if the trough bursts before the dakshina (cows) have been led up, let him then give one cow; and after coming out from the purificatory bath, let him be consecrated again; for the atonement for that (mishap) is a second sacrifice. So much then as to those who burst the trough.
