13. And when the Hotri recites this (verse, Rig-v. V, 43, 7), “Whom the priests anoint, as if spreading him . . .,” he anoints that Mahavira which is to be used, all over with ghee, with, “May the god Savitri anoint thee with honey!” for Savitri is the impeller of the gods, and honey means everything whatever there is here: he thus anoints it (or him) all over with everything here, and Savitri, as the impeller, impels it for him,—this is why he says, “May the god Savitri anoint thee with honey!”
