atha anūbandhyasya vapāyām saṃsthitāyām tvāṣṭreṇa paśunā caranti / (soma: gavāmayana)

> has been completed, they proceed with the victim for Tvaṣṭṛ; that for Tvaṣṭṛ is a pouring of seed; in the hut of the wife they proceed; in wives is seed poured. Inaudibly they proceed; (the victim) for Tvaṣṭṛ is a pouring of seed; inaudibly is seed poured. After surrounding it with fire they let it go; they do not dispose of it, (thinking) ‘(The victim) for Tvaṣṭṛ is a pouring of seed; let us not dispose of seed poured before the time.’ They say ‘Seeing that he invites these two deities, Tvaṣṭṛ and the lord of the forest, in what place are these two sacrificed to by him?’ In the fore-offerings he sacrifices to these two deities; then are these two sacrificed to by him.
