He leads forward the king (Soma). That Âgnîdhrîya fire has just been taken up on the support, when they take one fire-brand each (from the fire at the hall-door) and disperse to their several dhishnya hearths: 'They who do so,' said Yâgñavalkya, 'slay with those fire-brands of theirs.' This now is one way.
