> "who is constant among mortals, conforming to the cosmic order, hot-flowing, ghee-fed, the purifier"—this indeed is Agni's dear abode, namely ghee; they prosper him with his dear abode. "Snorting like a horse longing for grass"—\[it contains the word\] "horse", precisely to repel the rival. "When he stepped out of the great enclosure"—for this day, which is the forty-four-fold, is great. "Then the wind blows after his flame; black indeed is your path"—when the wind blows upon Agni, then he burns greatly; that radiance is indeed the form of spiritual luster. "Of you, the newly-born bull, rising up"—thus they approach the triṣṭubh form; for this day belongs to the triṣṭubh. "O Agni, the unaging \[flames\] move, being kindled; you go toward heaven, the ruddy smoke; as a messenger, O Agni, you go to the gods"—for the attainment of the heavenly world.
