'Let us go back thither,' said the gods, and betook themselves to where Agni was concealed.

Agni then gave them back their beasts. > — Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44) - [Previous: 2.3.4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha.2.3.4.1) - [Next: 2.3.4.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha.2.3.4.3) - [Up: 2.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha.2.3.4) ## Translations (1) - [The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha*madhyandina~en-eggeling.2.3.4.2) — Julius Eggeling 1882, English ## Commentaries (2) - [Śatapathabrāhmaṇabhāṣya (Harisvāmin)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha*madhyandina!harisvamin) — Harisvāmin, Sanskrit - [Śatapathabrāhmaṇabhāṣya (Sāyaṇa)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha*madhyandina!sayana) — Sāyaṇa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha.2.3.4.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.satapatha.2.3.4.2) · Pramāṇa
