15. When this (offering) is completed, the Adhvaryu and the Sacrificer rise, and whisper in the horse’s right ear (Vajasaneyi Samhita XXII, 19), “Plenteous by thy mother, strengthful by dry father . . .!” the meaning of this has been explained. They then set it free towards the north-east, for that—to wit, the north-east—is the region of both gods and men: they thus consign it to its own region, in order to its suffering no injury, for one who is established in his own home suffers no injury.
