tad ubhayam ahorātrābhyām āptam /

xvii. 5. In that they undertake the Atirātra, (it is because) the year is as great as day and night; in that they undertake the Atirātra, (it serves) to obtain the year. Moreover, all this (universe) is twofold, unguent and brilliance; both of these are obtained by day and night. In that they undertake the Atirātra, (it is) for the obtaining of unguent and brilliance.
