9.1.1.21

sa vā aśītyāṃ ca svāhākaroti | prathame cānuvāke 'thāśītyāmathāśītyāṃ ca yāni cordhvāni yajūṃṣyāvatānebhyo 'nnamaśītayo 'nnenaivainānetatprīṇāti

With (each set of) eighty (formulas) he utters the Svâhâ,--on the first anuvâka, and on eighty, and on eighty; and the formulas which follow as far as the 'unstringing'-formulas (Vâg. S. XVI, 54-63),--eighties mean food: by means of food he thus gratifies them.
