त्रि रात्र उपोषितः पुष्येण शस्त्र हतस्य शूल प्रोतस्य वा पुंसः शिरः कपाले मृत्तिकायां यवान् आवास्य अविक्षीरेण सेचयेत् ॥

Having fasted for three nights, one should, on the day of the star, Pushya, catch hold of the skull of a man who has been killed with a weapon or put to the gallows. Having filled the skull with soil and barley seeds, one should irrigate them with the milk of goats and sheep.
