One should only say: "I will labor." Two deities indeed sit at a sacrificial session: out-breath and in-breath. That is the ascent of the two. Because they two act as a sacrificial session here, therefore they are the sitters at the session. Therefore one should only say: "I will labor." On this there is this verse: / "Seven seers are established in the prosperous one; / the seven see the two that have entered manifoldly; / seven waters approach this world, / where the two watchful deities sit at the sacrificial session." / When it says: "Seven seers are established in the prosperous one," the prosperous one is man. These seven seers established are the breaths themselves. When it says: "the seven see the two that have entered manifoldly," they see these two that have entered manifoldly, namely out-breath and in-breath. When it says: "seven waters approach this world," these are twofold waters, these are twofold, these are onefold, these are twofold downward. When it says: "where the two watchful deities sit at the sacrificial session," those very two are the deities.
