agnirvai sarvā devatāḥ | agnau hi sarvābhyo devatābhyo juhvati tadyathā sarvā devatā upadhāvedevaṃ tattasmādagnaya eva
Agni (the fire), assuredly, represents all the deities, since it is in the fire that they make offering to all deities: to Agni alone therefore (he should announce it), since he thereby has recourse to all the deities.
