adhī iva vai paśūn puruṣas tiṣṭhaty adhi iva vai paśūn puruṣas tiṣṭhati / (soma: chandomāh)

Chandomas (the verses) of two Padas are recited; the Chandomas are cattle; (the verses) with two Padas are the metre of the sacrificer; verily thus he places the sacrificers in the overlordship of cattle; man stands over cattle as it were.
