12. Thereupon the verse to Indra and Agni (Vajasaneyi Samhita III, 13), “You two, O Indra and Agni, I will invoke; you two I will delight together with kindly office; you two, the givers of strength and wealth,—you two I invoke for the obtainment of strength!” Indra, doubtless, is the same as that burning (sun); when he sets, then he enters the Ahavaniya;—hence he now approaches these two that are thus united, thinking, “May the two, united, grant me favours:” this is why the Indra-Agni (verse is muttered).
