sa vā āgneyo 'ṣṭākapālaḥ puroḍāśo bhavati | agnirvai devatānām mukham prajanayitā sa prajāpatistasmādāgneyo bhavati
In the first place there is a cake for Agni on eight potsherds. Agni indeed is the root, the progenitor of the deities; he is Pragâpati ('lord of creatures'): hence there is a cake for Agni.
