At what time do they offer the libation ? With the pieces of the daily burnt-offering. There is a story of a certain Boethian that he poured the water over his feet, and all the people threw their citrons at him. On that day the horn of the altar was damaged, and the service ceased whilst they brought a lump of salt and put it on it that it might not appear to be damaged ; for any altar which has no horn, nor graded ascent, nor foundation is not valid. Rabbi Yose ben Rabbi Yehudah says, Also if there be no Sobeb.
