> Moreover, these two—day and night—are the dark and the brindled.  
> Day is the brindled; night is the dark.  
> Those who offer at night enter into the dark one, night.  
> And those who offer after sunrise enter into the brindled one, day.  
> Their crossing is just this: after sunset before darkness \[falls\], and when dawn has fully broken before sunrise.  
> Moreover, among these, Savitṛ is glory.  
> Savitṛ is Prajāpati; Prajāpati is the All-Gods.  
> It is offered for him in Prajāpati, in the All-Gods.  
> That which is the fire-offering belongs to Prajāpati.  
> Now, when it shines forth in the morning, in this glory Prajāpati propagated creatures.  
> Savitṛ is Prajāpati; Prajāpati is the All-Gods; it is offered for him in Prajāpati, in the All-Gods.  
> That which is the fire-offering belongs to the All-Gods.  
> Moreover, day and night connect together with such an opening.  
> The fire-offering is food.  
> With food he covers the mouths of day and night.  
> In the same way, in the morning he connects them again.  
> The fire-offering is food.  
> Having covered the mouths of day and night with food, he escapes those two repeated deaths that are day and night.
