(iv) Quarrelling in the dairy.
(v) Going to the dairy after visiting the seclusion-hut for women (see [Chap. XIV]).
(vi) Going to the dairy after taking food with a man who has been to the seclusion-hut.
(vii) Going to the dairy after throwing earth at a funeral (see [Chap. XV]).
(viii) Going to the dairy after chewing tobacco.
(ix) Buying or selling buffaloes on the madnol or sacred day of the village or on the palinol, the sacred day of the dairy (see [Chap. XVII]).
(x) Driving buffaloes from one place to another on these days. [[296]]
Going to the buffaloes or touching the buffaloes is an offence of the same rank as going to the dairy.
The general name for all these offences is paliwörtvichi; they are all regarded as offences against the dairy.
For the first three of the offences it is customary that the irnörtiti ceremony shall be performed. For the last seven tuninörtiti is more usual. For the fourth offence the punishment varies according to the status of the offender. If he is a palikartmokh, he usually has to give the tuni only, but if an ordinary man he may be ordered to give a buffalo. It is a far smaller punishment to give a piece of cloth worth about one rupee four annas than to give a buffalo calf, and it would seem therefore that the first three offences are regarded as more serious than the last seven. It would seem also that if a dairyman quarrels in his dairy it is regarded as a less serious offence than in the case of an ordinary man.
