XIV KÂNDA, I ADHYÂYA, 4 BRÂHMANA, 14. 471
10. 'Wandering on paths hither and thither,' -for he indeed wanders hither and thither on the divine' paths;—'arraying himself in the gathering and the radiating,'—for he indeed arrays himself in the gathering (converging) and the radiating regions, or rays ;—'he moveth to and fro within the spheres,'—for again and again he wanders moving within these worlds.
11. [Våg. S. XXXVII, 18,]'O lord of all worlds, O lord of all thought, o lord of all speech, O lord of every speech !' that is, 'O lord of all this (universe); '—'Thou art heard by the gods, O god Gharma, as a god, guard thou the gods!' in this there is nothing hidden, so to speak.
12. Give thy countenance hereafter to the divine feast of you two,'-it is with regard to the two "Asvins that he says this, for it was the Asvins that then restored the head of the sacrifice: it is them he thus pleases, and therefore he says, "Give thy countenance hereafter to the divine feast of you two.'
13. 'Honey to the two lovers of honey! honey to the two longing for honey!'-for Dadhyank the Atharvana indeed told them (the Asvins) the Brâhmana called Madhu (honey), and this is their dear resource: it is by means of that (dear resource) of theirs that he approaches them, and therefore he says, 'Honey to the two lovers of honey! honey to the two longing for honey!'
14. [Vâg. S. XXXVII, 19,] 'To the heart
One might expect daivaih pathíbhik' or 'devash patbsbhih, which Mahidhara explains by devamärgain.'
