Therefore, indeed, this sāman must not be omitted from this day. 'Like the rays of the sun, driving away'—they contain [the word] 'sun' for the striking down of the rakṣases. 'The exhilarating ones, rousing the sleepers, rush together; the swift streams [flow] around the stretched-out thread; no abode purifies itself without Indra'—for indeed no abode purifies itself without Indra. 'The thought approaches, the honey is poured'—'approach' is this world today, 'approach' is tomorrow; through this they multiply after this world, [and] in this world they firmly establish cattle. 'The bull roars, the cows approach, the divine [waters] approach the meeting place of the god; he has crossed the white woven tail-hair; Soma has put on [the filter] like a washed garment'—these contain [the prefix] 'pari' as the mark of the end, for this day is the end.
