6.2.2.2

śyāmo bhavati | dvayāni vai śyāmasya lomāni śuklāni ca kṛṣṇāni ca dvandvam mithunam prajananaṃ tadasya prājāpatyaṃ rūpaṃ tūfaro bhavati tūparo hi prajāpatiḥ

It is a dark grey one; for the grey has two kinds of hair, the white and the black; and two make a productive pair: that is its Pragâpati-characteristic. It is a hornless one, for Pragâpati is hornless.

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
