There are three pressings. Now they spoil the third pressing if there are no stalks of the plant in it. Having offered the silent cup, he puts a shoot in the vessel which holds it, and placing it with the third pressing he should press it out. In that he makes it swell, it has a stalk; in that he presses it out, it has the lees; thus he makes all the pressings have stalks and pure provision, and be of equal strength.

Two oceans are there extended, unperishing;

They revolve in turns like the waves in the bosom of the sea;

Seeing they pass over one of them,

Seeing not they pass over the other with a bridge.

Two garments continuous one wears;

With locks, knowing all the worlds;

He goes in secret clad in the dark;

He puts on his bright robe abandoning that of the worn-out one.

Whatever the angels did at the sacrifice the rejecters did. The angels saw this great sacrifice, they extended it, they performed the Agnihotra as the vow; therefore one should perform the vow twice, for twice they offer the Agnihotra. They performed the full moon rite, as the animal sacrifice to the Radiant One and the Provider. They performed the new moon rite, as the animal sacrifice to the Radiant One. They performed the sacrifice to all the angels as the morning pressing. They performed the Varunapraghasas, as the midday pressing. They performed the Sakamedhas, the sacrifice for the fathers, and the offering to Tryambaka, as the third pressing. The rejecters sought to follow their sacrifice, but could not get on its tracks. They said, "These have become inviolable (adhvartavya)." That is why the sacrifice (adhvara) is inviolable. Then the righteous prospered, the rejecters were defeated. One who, knowing thus, offers the sacrifice prospers himself, the enemy is defeated.
