3. Then the Agrayana with (Vajasaneyi Samhita VII, 28), “For my mind, giver of lustre, become thou -pure for lustre!” Then the Ukthya with, “For my vigour, giver of lustre, become thou pure for lustre!” Then the Dhruva with, “For my life, giver of lustre, become thou pure for lustre!” Then the two Soma-troughs (Putabhrit and Adhavaniya) with, “For all mine offspring, givers of lustre, become ye pure for lustre!” Now the two troughs belong to the All-gods, for therefrom they draw (Soma) for the gods, therefrom for men, therefrom for the Fathers: therefore the two Soma-troughs belong to the All-gods.
