[He throws it on the high-altar, with Vâg. S. XII, 106-I11; Rik S. X, 140] 'Thine, O Agni, is glory and vigour,'--his glory (sravas) and vigour doubtless is the smoke, for that announces (srâvaya) him in yonder world,--'mighty shine forth the flames, O rich-beamed one!' that is, 'the flames of (thee), the mighty one, shine forth, O thou, abounding in wealth!'--'With might, O wide-rayed one (thou bestowest) strength, worthy of song,' might is power: thus, 'By (thy) power, O wide-rayed one, (thou givest) food worthy of song;'--'bestowest thou upon the worship, O sage!' worship doubtless is the Sacrificer: thus, 'Upon the worship thou bestowest, O sage!'
