He saw these two-day Varuṇapraghāsa rites.
He brought them.
He sacrificed with them.
With them he released them from the sin belonging to Varuṇa.
In that these two-day Varuṇapraghāsa rites take place, he releases the creatures from the sin belonging to Varuṇa through them.
The introductory verse (pratipad) of the first day belongs to the Maruts (marutvatī).
The animals are for Agni and for the Maruts.
When these creatures of his were seized by Varuṇa, the Maruts, falling into the vulnerable spots, sought to tear them to pieces.
In that the introductory verse belongs to the Maruts, they appease the Maruts with this share.
The animal is for Agni; the sacrifice is Agni, lest we go away from Agni, the sacrifice.
The introductory verse of the second day contains 'ka' (kavatī), and the upālambhyā animal is for Ka; Prajāpati is Ka; thus they gratify Prajāpati in the end.
Prajāpati considered: 'Joy (kam) have I been to the creatures; may I be joy to myself.'
He saw this introductory verse containing 'ka' and the upālambhyā animal for Ka.
Then indeed he became joy to the creatures and joy to himself.
He becomes joy to creatures and joy to himself, whoever knows thus.
The animal is for Agni; the sacrifice is Agni, lest we go away from Agni, the sacrifice.
