1.9.2.7

tā vā ājyahaviṣo bhavanti | reto vā ājyaṃ reta evaitatsiñcati tasmādājyahaviṣo bhavanti

He makes (the offerings) of butter for sacrificial food. Butter indeed means seed: hence he thereby scatters seed, and therefore makes them of butter for sacrificial food.

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
