Wenn das [Feuer] durch Quirlen einmal erzeugt ist, dann atmet er [der Opferbringer] darauf.
Da das Feuer wahrlich Atem ist: Er erzeugt daher das was der Erzeuger ist.
Nun atmet er wieder ein: So errichtet er die Feuerstelle in dem innersten seiner Seele.
Und so nistet sich das Feuer im innersten der Seele ein.
Englische Übersetzung von Julius Eggeling:
Now, when, on that occasion, they produce that (fire) by churning, then he (the sacrificer) breathes (blows) upon it, when produced; for fire indeed is breath: he thereby produces the one thus produced. He again draws in his breath: thereby he establishes that (fire) in his innermost soul; and that fire thus becomes established in his innermost soul
