[The seventh brick, with, Vâg. S. XV, 55], 'Whereby thou carriest a thousand, whereby, O Agni, all wealth,'--for that, indeed, is his most acceptable power whereby he carries a thousand, and all wealth;--'thereby lead thou this sacrifice of ours unto the light to go to the gods!'--that is, 'thereby lead thou this our sacrifice to the heavenly world to go to the gods.'--[The eighth brick, with, Vâg. S. XV, 56], 'This is thy natural womb...;'--the meaning of this has been explained. Eight bricks he lays down: the meaning of this also has been explained.
