> They are \[the two stomus\] relating to the Virāj, for the attainment of food.  
> There is a six-day period of pṛṣṭhas.  
> Fortune, indeed, is the summit, the pṛṣṭhas.  
> Thus they ascend upward to fortune, to the summit, to the pṛṣṭhas.  
> There are Chandomas; cattle, indeed, are Chandomas, for the attainment of cattle.  
> There is a tenth day; ten-syllabled is the virāj, food is the virāj, for the attainment of food from the virāj.  
> They say: before the silent stoma, praise should be chanted on these over-meters \[beginning with\]: 'This human thousand...'  
> An over-meter, indeed, surpasses the other meters.  
> Surpassing other \[rites\] are these participants in a year-long session;  
> thus they establish themselves in their own meter.  
> The sāman has a single-syllable finale.  
> Single-syllabled, indeed, is speech.  
> Thus by the tenth day they make speech complete.  
> The finale is 'gor' \[of the cow\]; the cow, indeed, is all food, for the attainment of all food.  
> Regarding this they say: 'The anuṣṭubh would be over-praised if they should do this here.'  
> Thinking, 'Lest we over-praise speech,' they praise in mind with the silent stoma.  
> And here, indeed, this is made complete through speech;  
> therefore this should not be done here.
