8.6.2.4

pratiṣṭhā dvipadāḥ | etāvadvai mahaduktham mahadukthaṃ śrīḥ sarvāmevāsmā etāṃ devāḥ prāyacaṃstathaivāsmā ayametāṃ sarvāṃ śriyam prayacati

Dvipadâ verses are the feet. Thus much is the great hymn of praise, and the great hymn of praise means distinction: the gods bestowed upon him (Agni) all that distinction, and so does this (Sacrificer) bestow upon him all that distinction.

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