Preview of English translation:

14. “How is he to appease these?” they ask. “Let him appease them with the Barhaduktha verses, "Enkindled, anointing the lap of the faithful(f.) . . .;" for Brihaduktha, the son of Vamadeva, or Ashva, son of Samudra, saw these very (verses) to be the apri-verses of the horse: it is by means of these we appease it,” so they say. But let him not do so; let him appease it with the Jamadagna verses; for Jamadagni is Prajapati, and so is the Ashvamedha: he thus supplies it with its own deity; let him therefore appease (the victims) with the Jamadagna verses.
