The Twilight (hymn) is (performed in the) Trivrit (stoma), and with the Rathantara (tune). For the twenty-onefold (stoma) is he that burns yonder (the sun); from that twenty-onefold one he (the Sacrificer) parts, and descends again to the seventeenfold one; from the seventeenfold one to the fifteenfold one; and from the fifteenfold one he plants his foot on this firm footing, the Trivrit (stoma).
