अर्थMeaning
'The altar, O Gautama, is Parganya (the god of rain); the fuel is the year itself, the smoke the clouds, the light the lightning, the coals the thunderbolt, the sparks the thunderings. On that altar the Devas offer Soma, the king (the moon). From that oblation rises rain.

व्याख्याVyakhya
'गौतम, पर्जन्य ही अग्नि है। उसका समिधा संवत्सर है, धूम मेघ हैं, अर्चिः विद्युत् है, अंगारे वज्र है, स्फुलिंग गर्जन हैं। उस अग्नि में देव सोम राजा की आहुति देते हैं। उस आहुति से वृष्टि उत्पन्न होती है।'
