20. Here they say also:
21. He should keep (his vow) during that time in which he does not sacrifice, by abstaining from food.
22. When he then has obtained (the necessary substances for sacrificing), he should make up for the (omitted) oblations.
23. For thus also his vow has been duly kept.

26. At Âgya oblations he should only prepare that Ågya (chap. 7, 28) and should sacrifice it, picking out portions of it. (He should) not (sacrifice) the two Agya portions nor the Svishtakrit.
27. At Âgya oblations he should, if no special rule is given, sacrifice with the Mahâvyâhritis before and after (the chief ceremonies).
22. 'He should count the omitted (oblations), should pour the corresponding number of oblations into his vessel, and should sacrifice them in the due way all at once with one Mantra. In the same way also the other oblations (belonging to other gods).' Karmapradipa.
