Preview of English translation:
14. And, again, why he makes it smell; Agni went away from the gods; he entered the water. The gods said to Prajapati, “Go thou in search of him: to thee, his own father, he will reveal himself.” He became a white horse, and went in search of him. He found him on a lotus leaf, having crept forth from the water. He eyed him, and he (Agni) scorched him: hence the white horse has, as it were, a scorched mouth, and indeed is apt to become weak-eyed. He (Agni) thought he had hit and hurt him, and said to him, “I grant thee a boon!”
