> "That Indra we make eager for booty"—this has the \*edāvasu\* finale, a finale made externally, the form of the Bṛhat. / Thereby they do not depart from the form of the Bṛhat; moreover, cattle indeed are wealth (vasu), for the obtainment of cattle. / Furthermore, having reached them \[saying\] "this indeed is wealth," he went up. "Here Viṣṇu strode out"—this is the pouring together of the Iḷās. / Cattle indeed are the pouring together of the Iḷās, for the obtainment of cattle. / For he summons them to himself, \[saying,\] "Come, Iḷā! Come, Iḷā!" Cattle indeed are Iḷā. / Therefore these surplus ukthas are to be performed. / And regarding this Tāṇḍya said: Prajāpati created cattle. / Created, they departed from him. / He said to Agni: "Ward these off for me." / He did not ward them off with the Jārābodhīya. / He said to Indra: "Ward these off for me." / He did not ward them off with the Satrāsāhīya. / He said to the god Īśāna: "Ward these off for me." / He did not ward them off at all with the Mārgīyava. / He said to Viṣṇu: "Ward these off for me." / He warded them off on verses to Viṣṇu with the Vāravantīya itself. / Because he warded them off (avārayata), that is the nature of the Vāravantīya (vāravantīyatva). / Therefore these surplus ukthas are indeed to be performed.
