sa vai pūrvavāṭ syāt | sa hyaparimitaṃ vīryamabhivardhate yadi pūrvavāhaṃ na vindedapi ya eva kaścāśvaḥ syādyadyaśvaṃ na vindedapyanaḍvāneva syādeṣa hyevānaḍuho bandhuḥ
Let it be one used as a leader; for such a one possesses unlimited strength. Should he be unable to obtain a leader, it may be any kind of horse. Should he be unable to obtain a horse, it may also be an ox, since that (fire) is related (bandhu) to the ox.
