ṛṣimanā ya ṛṣikṛtsvarṣāssahasranīthaḥ padavīḥ kavīnām  
iti sahasrarūpaṃ chandomānāmupagacchanti  
paśavo vai chandomāḥ  
tṛtīyaṃ dhāma mahiṣassiṣāsann  
iti tṛtīyo hyeṣa triyahaḥ kriyate yacchandomāḥ  
somo virājamanu rājati ṣṭub  
iti traiṣṭubhaṃ rūpamupagacchanti  
tariṣṭubhaṃ hyetadahaḥ  
atho pūrvo vaiṣa saho rājyam  
tamevaitacchandomā anu rājanti  
camūṣacchyenaśśakuno vibhṛtvā govindurdrapsa āyudhāni bibhrad  
iti gomatīḥ paśumatīrbhavanti paśūnāmevāvaruddhyai  
paśavo hi chandomāḥ  
apāmūrmiṃ sacamānassamudram  
iti samudravatīrbhavanti | chandomānāṃ rūpam  
samudro vai chandomāḥ  
turīyaṃ dhāma mahiṣo vivaktī  
ti turīyaṃ hyetadaharahnāṃ kriyate yacchandomāḥ

> "Having the mind of a seer, he who is a seer-maker, winning light, having a thousand melodies, the guide of poets"—thus they approach the thousandfold form of the chandomas; cattle indeed are the chandomas. "The buffalo desiring to gain the third abode"—for this third three-day rite that is the chandomas is performed. "Soma reigns along with the virāj, the triṣṭubh"—thus they approach the triṣṭubh form; for this day belongs to the triṣṭubh. And indeed, this is the power and dominion from before; along with that the chandomas reign. "Resting in the ladles, the falcon, the bird bearing \[the sacrifice\] far, the finder of cows, the drop bearing weapons"—thus they are endowed with cows and cattle, precisely for the acquisition of cattle; for cattle are the chandomas. "Pursuing the wave of the waters, the ocean"—thus they are endowed with the ocean, the form of the chandomas; for the ocean is the chandomas. "The buffalo proclaims the fourth abode"—for this day that is the chandomas is made the fourth of the days.

tā etā bhavanti triṣṭubhastriṣṭubvarṇā ahno rūpeṇa samṛddhāḥ  
yatra vā ahārūpeṇa samardhayanti saṃ tatrardhyate  
samasmā ṛdhyate ya evaṃ veda  
ete somā abhi priyam  
ityabhīti bhavati rathantarasya rūpam  
rāthantarametadahaḥ  
indrasya kāmamakṣarann

> These become triṣṭubhs, possessing the color of the triṣṭubh, perfected through the form of the day. Where they prosper \[the rite\] with the form of the day, it succeeds there. He who knows thus succeeds. "These Somas \[flow\] toward what is dear"—\[with the word\] "toward" (abhi), there is the form of the rathantara; this day is connected with the rathantara. "They flowed according to the desire of Indra"—that which pertains to Indra is the form of the triṣṭubh; for the triṣṭubh is nobility. "Increasing his vital power"—for this day, which is the forty-four-fold \[stoma\], is great. The hymn becomes the counterpart; the hymn is cattle, cattle are the chandomas, for the acquisition of cattle.
