ahorātrekṣaṇo divyo vedāṅgaśrutibhūṣaṇaḥ
ājyanāsaḥ sruvatuṇḍaḥ sāmaghoṣasvano mahān //
His eyes were day and night; he was of superhuman nature; his ears were the two bundles of Kusa grass (for the Ishtis, or smaller sacrifices, and for the animal offerings); his ear-rings were the ends of those bundles of Kusa grass (used for wiping the ladle and other sacrificial implements); his nose (the vessel containing) the clarified butter; his snout was the ladle of oblations; his voice was similar in sound to the chanting of the Sâma-veda; and he was of huge size.
