{ "prastava": "ō/hō-i (customary stobha prelude; exact prastāva depends on assigned gāna)", "udgitha": "ūrjjo napātamā huve 'gniṃ pāvakaśociṣam", "pratihara": "asminyajñe", "upadrava": "svadhvare", "nidhana": "ō/hā (closing stobha; tradition-dependent)", "structure_notes": "In Kauthuma rendering, the text is distributed so the vocative/invocation forms the udgītha core; rite-locatives often close as upadrava/nidhana with lengthening to ‘seat’ Agni in the ritual space.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha + upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all three: nidhana (with chorus support)." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa explains ūrjaḥ napāt as Agni ‘born of nourishment’—arising from fuel that supports the sacrifice and conveying nutritive oblations to the gods; svadhvara as the well-conducted adhvara (rite).", "ritual_interpretation": "Agni is invoked as the enabling power of the sacrifice: he receives offerings and transmits them, ensuring the rite proceeds without fault.", "theological_insight": "Agni is both generated by human provision (fuel/ūrj) and transcendent mediator—linking human order to divine reception.", "etymology_highlights": "napāt (‘offspring’); adhvara as sacrificial course/act; su-adhvara → svadhvara (‘good rite’)." }
