ततस्तस्मिन् सम्प्रवृत्ते सत्रे ज्वलितपावके । ब्रह्मणो जुद्वतस्तत्र प्रादुर्भावो बभूव ह,तदनन्तर प्रज्वलित अग्निवाले उस यज्ञके चालू होनेपर वहाँ ब्रह्माजीका वीर्य पुनः स्खलित हुआ
tatastasmīn sampravṛtte satre jvalitapāvake | brahmaṇo judvatastatra prādurbhāvo babhūva ha ||
তাৰপিছত, সত্রযজ্ঞ আৰম্ভ হৈ অগ্নি জ্বলি থাকোঁতে, তাত ব্ৰহ্মাৰ সৈতে সম্পৰ্কিত এক প্ৰাদুৰ্ভাৱ ঘটিল—তেওঁৰ বীৰ্য পুনৰ স্খলিত হ’ল।
