8. The Maitravaruna then mutters, “Impelled by the divine Savitri, acceptable to Mitra and Varuna!” Therewith he hastes to Savitri for his impulsion, for he is the impeller of the gods; and 'acceptable to Mitra and Varuna' he says, because Mitra and Varuna are the deities of the Maitravaruna (Prashastri),—thus he announces it to those who are the deities of the Maitravaruna: therefore he says, “acceptable to Mitra and Varuna.”
