9.4.3.4
ubhābhyāṃ yajuṣmatyā ca lokampṛṇayā caitaṃ cinoti | lokampṛṇayaivemānkṣatrameva tadvīryeṇātyādadhāti kṣatraṃ viśo vīryavattaraṃ karoti viśaṃ kṣatrādavīryatarām
That one he builds up both with the Yagushmatî (bricks laid down with a special formula), and with the Lokamprinâ (or space-filling ones, laid down with a common formula); the others with the space-filling one alone: he thus endows the chieftain pre-eminently with power, and makes the chieftain more powerful than the clan, and the clan less powerful than the chieftain.
