The domestic cattle follow the odd-numbered stomas, and the wild beasts follow those that end in an even number. Because the final sāman of the odd-numbered stomas is even-numbered, therefore domestic animals carry when yoked. And because the final sāman of the even-numbered stomas is odd-numbered, therefore wild animals wander around \[without being\] yoked. And because on the tenth day there are the fifteen-fold and thirty-three-fold stomas, therefore the two biggest of beasts, the elephant and the camel, carry when yoked. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [30.181.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.30.181.p1) vṛṣā pavasva dhāraye ti mādhyandinasya pavamānasya vṛṣaṇvatīrgāyatryo bhavanti bṛhato rūpam bārhatametadahaḥ marutvate ca matsara iti marutvatīrbhavanti marutvadvai madhyandinasya rūpam madhyandinasyaiva tadrūpānna yanti taṃ tvā dhartāramoṇyor > "Flow, bull, in a stream"—for the midday purifying chant there are Gāyatrī verses containing \[the word\] "bull", which is the form of the Bṛhat. This day belongs to the Bṛhat. "And exhilarating for the Maruts"—they contain \[the word\] "having the Maruts". "Having the Maruts" is indeed the form of the midday; thus they do not deviate from the form of the midday. "Thee, supporter of the two bowls"—as this seventh day is, as it were, fallen away, that he says "Thee, supporter", is for support in the fire. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [30.181.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.30.181.p2) iti vibhraṣṭamivaitadaharyatsaptamam tadyattaṃ tvā dhartāramityagna eva dhṛtyai tāsu gāyatramuktabrāhmaṇam ### [30.181.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.30.181.p3) atha santani yathā ha vai vyokasau vicchidya vyutkrāmata evaṃ ṣaṣṭhaṃ ca saptamaṃ cāhanī vyucchidya vyutkāmataḥ sa yathāśvaṃ saṃyojanena saṃyujyādevamatra santati tasya sakṛtprastauti | triḥ pratiharati | trirnidhanamupayanti tatsapta saṃpadyante saptamasyāhno rūpaṃ | saptarātrasya santatyā avyavacchedāya > Now the Santani sāman. Just as two men without a common abode separate and depart, so the sixth and seventh days separate and depart. Just as one would join a horse with a harness, so here is the Santani. Of it he sings the prelude once, he chants the response thrice, they chant the finale thrice. These amount to seven, the form of the seventh day, for the continuity of the seven-day period, for non-interruption. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.30.181) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.30.181](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.30.181) · Pramāṇa
