5.1.2.9

tānvā etān | pañca vājapeyagrahāngṛhṇāti prajāpatiṃ vā eṣa ujjayati yo vājapeyena yajate saṃvatsaro vai prajāpatiḥ pañca vā ṛtavaḥ saṃvatsarasya tatprajāpatimujjayati tasmātpañca vājapeyagrahāngṛhṇāti

These, then, are five Vâgapeya cups he draws; for he who offers the Vâgapeya wins Pragâpati; and Pragâpati is the year, and there are five seasons in the year,--he thus wins Pragâpati: therefore he draws five Vâgapeya cups.
