13. Having fetched it, he deposits it behind the Garhapatya, with (Vajasaneyi Samhita VI, 24), “I seat you in the seat of Agni, the safe-housed;” whereby he means to say, “I seat you (waters) in the seat of Agni, whose house is unimpaired.” And when the animal offering to Agni and Soma comes to a close, then he carries (the Vasativari water) round. He says (thrice), “Disperse!” The sacrificer is seated in front of the Soma-carts (holding Soma on his lap). He (the Adhvaryu) takes it (the water standing behind the Garhapatya).
