No special class of persons is set apart for their performance. No special places are set apart for the performance. Desired objects are attained not by propitiating the favor of divine through sacrifice prayer and praise, but by ceremonies of resemblance between rite and effect.

Fit to cry, I took an orange from my pocket, and offered it to propitiate him.

I apparently offended the neck gods last night. I have propitiated them with acetaminophen, but they found the sacrifice insufficient.
When the hour is appropriate for another sacrifice, I will try ibuprofen. And maybe a hot pad.
