The Adhvaryu takes (draws) it by means of the Graha (Soma-cup); and inasmuch as he thereby takes (grab) it, it is (called) Graha. The Udgâtri puts the vital fluid into it by means of the (sâman of the) Great Rite (mahâvrata); but, indeed, the (sâman of the) Great Rite is (equivalent to) all these (other) sâmans (hymn-tunes): it is thus by means of all the hymn-tunes that he puts the vital fluid therein. The Hotri puts the vital fluid therein by means of the Great Litany; but, indeed, the Great Litany is the same as all these rik (hymn-verses): it is thus by means of all the hymn-verses that he puts the vital fluid into it (the Soma-cup).
