3.9.2.12
haviṣmān astu sūrya iti | etasmai vai gṛhṇāti ya eṣa tapati viśvebhyo hyenā devebhyo gṛhṇāti raśmayo hyasya viśve devāstasmādāha haviṣmān astu sūrya iti
'May Sûrya be rich in havis!' For he takes it for yonder burning (sun), since he takes it for all the gods, and all the gods are his (the sun's) rays of light; therefore he says, 'May Sûrya (the sun) be rich in havis!'
