vii. 33 (xxxv. 7). ‘When they fill up the goblets, then he should fill up the goblet of the sacrificer; in it should have been cast two Darbha shoots. When the vaṣaṭ call has been uttered he should throw the first of them within the altar, with the verse ‘I have celebrated Dadhikrāvan’ accompanied by the call of Hail! The second (he should throw) after the second vaṣaṭ call has been said with ‘Dadhikrā with his brilliance the five folks’. When they take up the goblets, then he should take up the goblet of the sacrificer. When they lift them up (to the mouth), then he should lift it up after them. When the Hotṛ invokes the sacrificial food, when he partakes of the food in the goblet, then he should partake of it with

‘That which is left over of the pressed juice rich in sap,
Which Indra drank mightily,
Here with auspicious mind this of him,
I partake of Soma the king.’

Auspiciously to him this (food) from the trees is consumed with auspicious mind, dread is his sway, unassailable, who as a Kṣatriya when sacrificing partakes thus of this food. With

‘Be thou kindly to our heart when drunk,
Do thou extend our life, to live long, O Soma’;

the touching of himself (is accompanied). If not touched this (drink) is liable to destroy the life of man (thinking) ‘An unworthy one is partaking of me’. In that he touches himself with it, verily thus he prolongs life. With the appropriate (verses ) ‘Swell up, let them come together for thee’ and ‘Let the milk unite for thee, the strengths’ he makes the goblet full; that which is appropriate in the sacrifice is perfect.’
