They rose up, saying: 'We have succeeded.' Their completions are these: that they finish \[the rite\], that is one; that one of them dies, that is one; that ten cows become a hundred, that is one; that a hundred cows become a thousand, that is one. Formerly, the householders of Sthūra \[sacrificed\] with this. The archers among the Trikartas or the Salvas arose on all sides and defeated them. They killed their sacrificial patron. Weeping, they sat down around their killed sacrificial patron. But Dhruvagopa recognized him running away by his resemblance alone. From the Āhavanīya fire itself he mounted upward to the heavenly world. He said: 'Do not weep! He whom you weep for, that very one has mounted from the Āhavanīya fire upward to the heavenly world.' Those of them whom they killed there went to the heavenly world. Now, those who were left behind are these days rather praised among the descendants of Sthūra; for prior to that, they were rather wretched villages. Therefore, they recount the Sthaura \[rite\] as the Peg-Casting Rite. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p1) atha yasyaitasya viśvajidabhijitāvatirātrāvabhito bhavato gaurāyurgaurāyuriti > Now, as for this \[sacrifice\] where the Viśvajit and Abhijit are the two Atirātras on both sides, with Gauḥ-Āyus, Gauḥ-Āyus— > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p2) catvāra ukthyā madhye paśukāmā haitadupeyuḥ > four Ukthyas in the middle—those desirous of cattle should undertake it. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p3) ayaṃ vai loko'bhijidasau viśvajit > This world, indeed, is the Abhijit; that \[world\] is the Viśvajit. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p4) athaite catvāro madhya ukthyā bhavanti > Then there are these four Ukthyas in the middle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p5) paśavo vā ukthāni > Cattle, indeed, are the ukthas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p6) teṣāṃ sahasraṃ stotriyāḥ > Their stotriya verses are a thousand. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p7) anena caiva tallokenāmunā cobhayata etānpaśūnparigṛhṇate'va paśūnrundhate > Thus, by means of both this world and that one, they enclose these cattle on both sides; they obtain cattle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p8) bahupaśavo ha bhavanti > They become rich in cattle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.299.p9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.299.p9) etena ha vai tadenenendrāgnī marutaḥ sahasraṃ jigyatuḥ indro vai > By this very \[rite\], indeed, Indra and Agni conquered the thousand of the Maruts.
