1.21.25

saurabhyaṃ dhūma-dhārā yajur-anupaṭhanaṃ śubhra-śālā dvijānāṃ
gatyāgatyādi-ceṣṭāḥ śubha-yuta-hutabhug-vedi-bhāg-ṛtvijaś ca |
gatvā natvāpy abhīkṣṇaṃ puṭita-karatayā nādare' py asthur ete
yasmād brahmaṇya-deva-svatulita-suhṛdaḥ kintv idaṃ māṃ dunoti ||

"The fragrance, the column of smoke, the recitation of the Yajurveda, the white hall of the twice-born, / the coming and going and other activities, and the priests at the fire-altar accompanied by auspicious fires— / though these [boys], friends equal to the God who favors the brahmins, went and bowed repeatedly with folded hands, they stood there receiving no regard; and that grieves me."
