sa vai jānudaghne prathamaṃ svāhākaroti | adha-iva vai tadyajjānudaghnamadha iva tadyadayaṃ lokastadya imaṃ lokaṃ rudrāḥ prāviśaṃstāṃstatprīṇāti

The first Svâhâ ('hail') he utters on the knee-high one,---what is knee-high is, as it were, below, and below, as it were, is this (terrestrial) world: he thus gratifies those Rudras who entered this world.
