They would not tie up the lamb; rather, they would bind it, akeidah style.  Whoever won the privilege of [carrying] the limbs would hold [the lamb]. And this is how [the lamb] was [positioned in] its binding: Its head [pointed] to the south and its face [was turned] to the west. The slaughterer stands on the east [side of the lamb] and his face was toward the west.  [The tamid] of the morning was slaughtered by the northwest corner [of the Altar], on the second ring. [The tamid] of the evening was slaughtered by the northeast corner, on the second ring. The slaughterer slaughtered and the receiver [of the blood] received it.  He came to the northeast corner [of the Altar] and would apply [the blood] to the east [and] to the north; [he came to the] southwest [corner] and would apply [the blood] to the west [and] to the south. [The Kohen] would pour the remainder of the blood onto the southern base [of the Altar].
