Plain text of Kanda 2 · ii. 3. 12

The Creator led the horse to the All-Seeing; it went to its own Lord, and he was afflicted; he saw this offering to the All-Seeing on four potsherds, and offered it; then indeed he was set free from the noose. As many horses as he accepts, so many offerings to the All-Seeing should he offer; he has recourse to God with his own share, and He frees him from the noose. The offerings are on four potsherds, for the horse has four feet; it serves for prosperity. He should offer an extra one; whatever horse he is going to accept or whatever horse he has overlooked, from that noose is he set free. If he is going to accept another, he should offer in supplement an offering to the Light-giver on one potsherd. He goes to the waters as the final bath; the All-Seeing is in the waters, that is, His signs are in the waters; thus he appeases Him. After his return he should offer an oblation to the Son of the Waters; the horse has its birthplace in the waters; thus he makes him go to his own birthplace.
