Then, on the ninth day, he transposes the grahas, and they transpose the metres. There he draws the cups beginning with the Âgrayana; for that ninth day belongs to the Gagatî (metre), and the Âgrayana is the self, and the self (soul) is this whole world (gagat): therefore he draws the cups beginning with the Âgrayana.
