To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Among the developments along this line we shall now speak of sacrifices and ceremonies. There were three reasons why sacrifices were raised to such high emi- nence and assumed such complex forms in India. In the first place sacrifice, we must remember, is one of the oldest of human institutions — going back to the very beginnings of human history. The Soma sacrifice can be clearly traced back to the Indo-Iranian period.^- Sacrifice had, therefore, what we may call the momentum of start. Secondl...y, we should recognize the importance of coincidence in the relation between sacrifice and success in war. The Indo-Aryans made it a practice to offer public sacrifices and to invoke the assistance of their gods before going to the battlefield, and their unqualified success over the first Dasyus they came across led them to believe in the thorough efficacy of the power of sacrifice to secure for them the aid of their gods. Later we find them believing that they could even com- pel gods to their wills by means of faultless sacrifices.
