He then pours ghee into the middle with, 'Thou art a lioness, bring thou hither the gods for the sacrificer! Hail!' whereby he causes the gods to be brought to the sacrificer. He then raises the offering-spoon with, 'To the beings thee! Hail!'--beings meaning offspring--he thereby means to say, 'To offspring thee!'
