Thereupon he (the Sacrificer) offers the Vasor dhârâ. That whole Agni has now been completed, and he is here the Vasu (good one): to that Vasu the gods offered this shower (dhârâ), whence it is called 'Vasor dhârâ;' and in like manner this (Sacrificer) offers to him this shower, and gratifies him thereby.
