tāni vai pañca juhoti | saṃvatsarasammito vai yajñaḥ pañca vā ṛtavaḥ saṃvatsarasya tam pañcabhirāpnoti tasmātpañca juhoti
He offers five libations, because the sacrifice is commensurate to the year, and there are five seasons in the year: thus he gains it (the year) in five (divisions), and therefore he makes five libations.
