tā vai jagatyo bhavanti / (soma: hotraka śastrāṇi(mādhyaṃdina savanam))

> with a Triṣṭubh, thereby at the midday (pressing) is the Triṣṭubh secured. He praises, standing; the stones stand as it were. He praised wearing a turban, and with eyes tied up; therefore now also wearing a turban (the priest) praises the stones. Moreover they say ‘The eye came’; it was a serpent; thus did poison come to the priests; he used these (verses) connected with (Soma) the purifying, and repelling poison, in praise; in that he uses these (verses) connected with (Soma) the purifying and repelling poison, verily (it serves) for the healing of the sacrifice and the curing of the sacrificers.’
