> The heavenly world is indeed the end of the worlds.  
> It is for the heavenly world that this third day is performed.  
> When it is thus, as it were, held back, it is so that the heavenly world is not missed.  
> 'Thy filter is spread out, O lord of prayer'  
> —thus they contain \[the word\] 'filter'.  
> This midspace that is spread out is, as it were, a filter.  
> This day belongs to the midspace.  
> 'Lording it, thou goest round the limbs on all sides'  
> —thus they contain \[the word\] 'all'.  
> For this day belongs to the All-Gods.  
> 'One whose body is unheated, the raw one, does not attain that; only the cooked ones, bearing it, taste it together'  
> —\[this is\] for attainment.  
> 'The filter of the ardent \[heat\] is spread out in the realm of heaven; shining, its threads have stretched out;  
> its swift ones help him who purifies; they ascend the back of heaven with luster'  
> —\[this is\] for the attainment of the heavenly world.  
> 'The spotted, primal bull has brightened the dawns; striving for prize, he bellows in the worlds;  
> the wonder-workers measured by his wondrous power; the farsighted fathers placed the embryo'  
> —thus they place the embryo again on this third day, for the generation of the fourth day.

> Upon these \[verses\] is the Ariṣṭa \[sāman\], for the unharmed condition of the sacrifice.  
> Whatever indeed of the sacrifice is badly chanted, badly recited, or disjointed, this is truly for the uninjured state of that.  
> Through this, the sacrifice is unharmed.  
> The gods, indeed, performed this twelve-day rite.  
> Whatever of theirs was about to come to harm, they made unharmed through the Ariṣṭa.  
> That is the Ariṣṭa's nature of being unharmed.  
> Through the unharmed twelve-day rite, he crosses over evil and attains prosperity, who knows thus.  
> It has three Iḷās; cattle, indeed, are Iḷā.  
> Cattle belong to this day, for the obtaining of cattle in regular succession.  
> Three Iḷās are truly a healing.  
> Three Iḷās are indeed that which is auspicious and appeased of speech.  
> Because it has three Iḷās on the third day, by that very means they appease the three days.
