3.2.3.6
tatheti devā abruvan | tavaiva prāyaṇīyastavodayanīya iti tasmādeṣa āditya eva prāyaṇīyo bhavatyāditya udayanīya iyaṃ hyevāditistato yajñamapaśyaṃstamatanvata
'So be it!' said the gods: 'Thine, forsooth, shall be the opening (prâyanîya), and thine the concluding (udayanîya) oblation!' This is why both the Prâyanîya and the Udayanîya (pap) belong to Aditi; for Aditi truly is this (earth). Thereupon they saw and spread the sacrifice.
