4. Priest ascended ladder of the kiva and blew a yellow feather
through a reed from the north paho-stand out of the hatch toward the
north, after which he blew a whistle pointing it the same way. This
was done in sequence to the west, south, and east, taking objects
from the altar each time.
5. Priest ascended ladder with a black reed from north cluster,
and blew from it, toward the north, a small feather. He then blew
a feather in sequence from the four stones, ascending the ladder
each time.[28] He licked honey from the stones and spat to the four
cardinal points.
6. Couriers carried the clay balls to distant shrines, and four
priests bore the four paho-stands, reeds, and yellow balls to other
shrines, also at cardinal points.
While the above events were transpiring songs were sung by the
assembled priests, and at the close the quartz crystal on the Sun
picture was raised from the stand and handled by each priest, who
sucked it, and pressed it to his heart.
