pṛthivī vāva gautamāgniḥ \
tasyāḥ samvatsara eva samit \

avāntaradiśo visphuliṅgāḥ \\506.1\
The earth indeed is the fire, O Gautama. Of that, the year is the fuel, Ākāśa is the smoke, night is the flame, the directions are the embers, and the intermediate directions are the sparks.

tasminn etasminn agnau devā varṣaṃ juhvati \
tasyā āhuter annaṃ saṃbhavati \\506.2\
Into this fire the deities offer the oblation of rain. Out of that oblation food (in the shape of corn) arises.
