"Flow, O Soma, most radiant"—thus there are flowing Gāyatrī verses for the midday purifying laud. "Flow" is a form of the Rathantara; this day is connected with the Rathantara. "Roaring towards the wooden tubs"—with the word "towards" (abhi), it is also a form of the Rathantara. "Procuring water for Indra and Vāyu"—they contain the word "water" (ap); for this day is water. "For Varuṇa and the Maruts"—they contain the Maruts; the connection with the Maruts is the form of the midday pressing; thus they do not depart from the form of the midday pressing. "Granting food for our offspring, O Soma, from every side to us"—they contain the word "all" (viśva); for this day belongs to the All-Gods. "Purify yourself for a thousandfold [wealth]"—thus they approach the thousand-form of the Mahānāmnī verses; for the Mahānāmnīs are cattle.
