te devā adhvaryumabruvan | yūpaśakalameva juhudhi tadahaiṣa svagākṛto bhaviṣyati tatho rakṣāṃsi yajñaṃ nānūtpāsyante 'yaṃ vai vajra udyata iti

The gods said unto the Adhvaryu, 'Offer thou only a chip of the stake; thereby this (sacrificer) will be bid good-speed; and thus the Rakshas will not hereafter sip the sacrifice, thinking, "that (stake) surely is a raised thunderbolt."'
