29. [He throws it on the high-altar, with Vajasaneyi Samhita XII, 106-I11; Rik S. X, 140] “Thine, O Agni, is glory and vigour,”—his glory (shravas) and vigour doubtless is the smoke, for that announces (shravaya) him in yonder world,—“mighty shine forth the flames, O rich-beamed one!” that is, “the flames of (thee), the mighty one, shine forth, O thou, abounding in wealth!”—“With might, O wide-rayed one (thou bestowest) strength, worthy of song,” might is power: thus, “By (thy) power, O wide-rayed one, (thou givest) food worthy of song;”—“bestowest thou upon the worship, O sage!” worship doubtless is the Sacrificer: thus, “Upon the worship thou bestowest, O sage!”
