Preview of English translation:
9. Verily, fiery spirit and spiritual lustre pass away from him who performs the Ashvamedha. The Hotri and the Brahman engage in a Brahmodya (theological discussion); for the Hotri relates to Agni, and the Brahman (priest) to Brihaspati, Brihaspati being the Brahman (n.): fiery spirit and spiritual lustre he thus bestows together on him. With the (central) sacrificial stake between them, they discourse together; for the stake is the Sacrificer: he thus encompasses the Sacrificer on both sides with fiery spirit and spiritual lustre.
