Jaiminīya (Talavakāra) Brāhmaṇa 33.204

On them is the Vīṅka of Vasiṣṭha, a surpassing. Indeed, at this point an anuṣṭubh surpasses an anuṣṭubh. Being an anuṣṭubh, it amounts to thirty-three syllables; thereby it surpasses. Vasiṣṭha, when he was vanquished and his sons killed, desired: 'May I pervade these worlds; may I extend far with offspring and cattle!' He saw this sāman. With it he praised. By it, shouting 'vī vī', he pervaded these worlds; he extends far with offspring and cattle. It is a heaven-procuring, procreative sāman. He pervades these worlds, he extends far with offspring and cattle, who knows thus. And it is unjostled by a stobha. From what is unjostled, offspring and cattle are born. The chandomas are cattle; thereby it is rich in proper form. Because Vasiṣṭha saw it, it is named the Vīṅka of Vasiṣṭha. It is an Iḷā-bearing sāman for the acchāvāka priest. Iḷā is cattle; they firmly establish themselves in cattle.

"Wiping the newborn, pleasing babe,"

[such] contain [the word] "tawny" (hari).

The highest form of speech is indeed endowed with "hari".

They seek speech together by means of the chandomas.

For speech, as it were, is now attained in the chandomas;

thus they find it.

"The Maruts adorn the sage with [their] troop,"

[such] contain [the word] "Maruts".

Endowed with the Maruts is indeed the form of the triṣṭubh;

this day belongs to the triṣṭubh.

Moreover, nobility is the triṣṭubh, and the commoners are the Maruts.

In that the triṣṭubhs contain the Maruts, they thereby make the commoners follow nobility.

Therefore, the commoner is a follower of nobility.

"The poet, [inspired] with songs through poetic wisdom, being a poet, Soma passes beyond the strainer, roaring,"

so saying, [he recites] passing beyond [some verses].
