> Between them is the Yajñāyajñīya. / Cattle indeed are the Yajñāyajñīya. / Having driven up those very cattle and having checked \[them\], they arise. / These two indeed are Prajāpati's out-breath and in-breath. / In that there are the Utsedha and Niṣedha, thereby they thrive with out-breath and in-breath. / Indeed, these two sāmans are the distributor of good and bad fortune. / This tenth day is a king's assembly. / For in an assembly, they drive away upwards and drive down one who speaks improperly as worse. / In that the Utsedha and Niṣedha are present, it is for the driving up and driving down of good and bad fortune. / Speech indeed is the Yajñāyajñīya. / It is between the Utsedha and Niṣedha. / The self indeed is speech; / the Utsedha and Niṣedha are out-breath and in-breath. / In that the Yajñāyajñīya is between the Utsedha and Niṣedha, they thereby grasp the self on both sides with out-breath and in-breath. / Therefore speech is grasped by out-breath and in-breath.
