6.6.2.8
tāṃ yadāgniḥ saṃtapati | athaināmarcirārohati yoṣā vā ukhā vṛṣāgnistasmādyadā vṛṣā yoṣāṃ saṃtapatyathāsyāṃ reto dadhāti
When the fire heats it, then the flame mounts up to it; for the fire-pan is a female, and the fire is a male: hence when the male heats the female, he infuses seed into her.
