2.15.1

abhrāṇi saṃplavante sa (S )kāraḥ \
megho jāyate sa prastāvaḥ \
varṣati sa udgīthaḥ \
vidyotate stanayati sa pratihāraḥ \
udgṛhṇāti tan nidhanam \
etad vairūpaṃ parjanye protam \\215.1\

1. Mists come together—that is a Hiṅkāra. A cloud is formed—that is a Prastāva. It rains—that is an Udgītha. It lightens and thunders—that is a Pratihāra. It holds up—that is a Nidhana. This is the Vairūpa Sāman as woven upon rain (pārjanya).
