At the Agnishtoma (Sâman) he seizes a (victim) for Agni, for the Agnishtoma (i.e. 'Agni's praise) is Agni: he thereby wins Agni. For the Ukthas he seizes one for Indra and Agni; for the hymns (uktha) relate to Indra and Agni: the hymns he thereby wins. For the Shodasi n he seizes one for Indra; for the Shodasin is Indra: the Shodasin (Indra) he thereby wins.
