> Singing with speech, he makes the cadence: 'vāc'. Thus he sings them indirectly with their characteristic form. When the Paṅkti is introduced with the prastāva, singing just the Gāyatra \[sāman\], he should mentally reach the seasons. Thus he sings them indirectly with their characteristic form. Quickly indeed he sings this final triplet. For this triplet is procreative. Quickly indeed he is propagated with offspring and cattle, who knows thus. When Prajāpati created creatures, he created them with this very triplet. With: 'The streams of thee, the purifying sage, the racer, have been poured forth' (RV 9.86.25a), he created them in streams. And with: 'They have been poured forth into the fleece' (RV 9.86.25b), he created them. He feared lest they, having been created, be scattered away. He saw this final \[verse\] possessing 'sea' (samudravatī). With it, with: 'Unto the sea the drops...' (RV 9.86.27a), he encompassed them completely with the sea. They were not scattered away from him. The property of him who knows thus is not scattered away. With: 'They have reached the womb of cosmic order' (RV 9.86.25d)—the soma cups indeed are the womb of cosmic order. By virtue of this syllable, creatures that are born go and return.
