17.5.11

bāhū mārjālīyaś ca agnīdhriyaś ca / (soma: sodaśin & atiratra)

xvii. 7. The sacrifice is a man; of him the oblation holders are the head, the Āhavanīya the face, the Sadas the stomach, the litanies the food, the Mārjālīya and the Āgnīdhriya the arms, the altars within the Sadas the internal divinities; the Gārhapatya and (the fire) for cooking the fast milk the support. Again, of him the Brahman priest is the mind, the Udgātṛ the expiration, the Prastotṛ the inspiration, the Pratihartṛ the cross-breathing, the Hotṛ the speech, the Adhvaryu the eye, the Sadasya
