xxv. 5. ‘May the radiant one drink the great Soma-made mead’ is the strophe triplet, containing in ‘All radiant, brilliant, great, the sun to see’ (the words) ‘apart (vi)’, ‘radiance’, and ‘sun’; this is a symbol of this day. ‘The sun hath loosened apart his car in the middle of the sky’ is the antistrophe, containing (the words) ‘apart’ and ‘sun’; the common metre is Jagatī, but the rule is (the triplet) to Sūrya, ‘For all love thee, of one mind, one countenance’, with the symbol of the sun in ‘Long living may we see, O sun’. ‘Assuredly thou art great, O sun’ is the Pragātha of the Sāman, containing (the word) ‘sun’; this is a symbol of this day. Here he recites the bases of the Bṛhat and the Rathantara; ‘Indra hath knowledge for the hearing of this’ is the beginning of the litany, containing (the word) ‘sun’ in ‘He is the lively pathmaker for the sun’; this is a symbol of this day, but the rule is (a verse ) to Sūrya, ‘Be favourable to us with thine eye, favourable to us with the day’, containing the symbol of the sun in ‘Give us, O sun, this wealth varied.’ ‘Who alone is to be invoked by mortals’ is (a hymn ) in Triṣṭubh, with the symbol ‘The divine atmosphere thou didst make to shine.’ So if they make the Mahādivākīrtya the Pṛṣṭha, but, if they perform the Bṛhat on its own basis, having recited the extension of the Bṛhat, he recites the basis of the Rathantara ; ‘Indra hath knowledge for the hearing of this’ is the beginning of the litany, containing (the word) ‘sun’ in ‘He is the lively pathmaker for the sun’; this is a symbol of this day.
