The gods fashioned the sixth day out of the fifth day. They sought an abode for it. They found the Revatī verses as its abode. He comes to possess an abode who knows thus. Cattle indeed are the Revatīs; the self is the midday pressing. Since they lead the Revatīs back to the midday pressing, they thereby establish cattle in the self. Cattle indeed are the Revatīs; the self is the midday pressing. Since they lead the Revatīs back to the midday pressing, they thereby establish milk in the self. Semen indeed is the Revatīs; the self is the midday pressing. Since they lead the Revatīs back to the midday pressing, they thereby establish semen in the self. Semen indeed is the Revatīs, and semen is the Raivata sāman. The finales of the Raivata sāman are thunderbolts indeed. So, if they should make the Raivata as the pṛṣṭha upon the Revatī verses, they would pierce the semen with a thunderbolt. In that they perform them before in the Pavamāna [laud], [they do so] thinking: 'Lest we pierce the semen with a thunderbolt.'
