ALTAR(さいだん)[/ˈɔːltər/]名詞
解説
付記
彼らは祭壇の前に立ち、 そこで己の脂肪が揚げられる火を、 自ら供給した。 犠牲は無駄である!— いかなる神も、 聖ならざる炎で焼かれた供物など、 要求しまい。 ―― M.P. ノップット

Original
The place whereupon the priest formerly raveled out the small intestine of the sacrificial victim for purposes of divination and cooked its flesh for the gods. The word is now seldom used, except with reference to the sacrifice of their liberty and peace by a male and a female tool.
Additional notes
They stood before the altar and supplied The fire themselves in which their fat was fried. In vain the sacrifice!—no god will claim An offering burnt with an unholy flame. M.P. Nopput
