Preview of English translation:
6. When those (Udgatris) chant (the stotra), and when he (the Hotri) recites (the shastra) afterwards, then he (the Adhvaryu) offers that (vital fluid, in the form of Soma) unto him (Agni-Prajapati) at the Vashat-call; and thus this vital fluid enters him. For, indeed, they do not see it to be the Great Rite that lies there being praised, nor the Great Litany, but it is Agni alone they see; for Agni is the self (body), and thus those two, the Ric and the Saman, enter him in the form of the vital fluid; and thus they both enter (join) the Yajus.
