¹⁹⁵¹ The शाङ्खायनगृह्य I. 10 has the verse हुतोऽग्निहोत्रहोमेनाहुतो बलिकर्मणा। प्रहुतः पितृकर्मणा प्राशितो ब्राह्मणे हुतः॥'; vide Manu III. 74 quoted above. बलि is अहुत and so Maruts are called अहुतादः. The शतपथ passages are 'अहुतादो वै देवानां मरुतः' (IV. 5. 2. 16), 'मरुतो वा इत्यश्वत्थेऽपक्रम्य तस्थुः क्षत्रं वा इन्द्रो विशो मरुतः' (IV. 3. 3. 6).
