As the two were running, Agni stepped in their way. The two said to him: 'Let us pass.' 'No,' he said, 'give me a share!' 'A third is yours,' the two said, 'but let it be called after the two of us.' 'Yes,' \[he said\]; so he let them pass. As the two were running, the Dawn stepped in their way. The two said to her: 'Let us pass.' 'No,' she said, 'give me a share!' 'A third is yours,' the two said, 'but let it be called after the two of us.' 'Yes,' \[she said\]; so she let them pass. The two won. He who thus knows this victory of the Aśvins, wherever he desires: 'May I win here,' he wins there. And he who knows this sharing by Agni and the Dawn, wherever he desires: 'May I receive a share here,' he receives a share there. Therefore, they chant together on \[verses\] addressed to various deities, but it is called simply 'the Āśvina'; for that was their choice. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.209.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.209.p6) - [Next: 1.211](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.211) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.1.210) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.210](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.210) · Pramāṇa
