अग्निर्देवेभिर्मनुषश्च जन्तुभिस्तन्वानो यज्ञं पुरुपेशसं धिया । रथीरन्तरीयते साधदिष्टिभिर्जीरो दमूना अभिशस्तिचातनः ॥

Agni, com os deuses, com os homens e com todos os seres vivos, dilata o sacrifício, moldando-o pelo pensamento inspirado, ricamente formado e de muitos aspectos. Como cocheiro, move-se no íntimo por realizações perfeitas; veloz em sua morada, senhor da casa, afasta a acusação e a injúria hostil.
