He turned back toward him. Luśa \[called\] him, 'Indra, hoyi! At the invocation, hoyi!' He stood between the two of them. He said to the two of them, 'Draw a share; with my self I will drink of one of you, with my greatness of the other.' 'So be it,' \[they agreed\]. The two drew a share: one won the self, the other the greatness. Kutsa won the self, Luśa won the greatness. With his self he drank of one, with his greatness of the other. With his self he drank of Kutsa, with his greatness of Luśa. Both indeed are his two selves: both the self and the greatness. This is a sāman that has Indra. His sacrifice becomes possessed of Indra, possessed of the gods; Indra turns toward his sacrifice, Indra does not depart from his sacrifice, for him who knows this. And because Kutsa saw it, therefore it is called Kautsa. It is an aiḷa sāman of the Acchāvāka. Cattle indeed are the iḷā. He is thus firmly established in cattle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [1.228.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.228.p1) tadāhū rathantarameva
