[785]
"My elephants too — Abhayaṅkara, Nāḷāgiri, and Accuggata (Varuṇadanta) —
bring them quickly; they shall serve for the sacrifice.
My horse-treasures (assaratana) too — Kesī, Surāmukha, Puṇṇaka, and Vinataka —
bring them quickly; they shall serve for the sacrifice.
My bulls too, leaders of the herd — Anoja, Nisabha, and Gavampati —
bring these also to me; let them set everything before me:
I will offer the sacrifice (yañña), I will give gifts.
Make everything ready;
the sacrifice shall be when the sun has risen.
Give the order to the princes — Canda and the rest —
let them take their delight this night.
Set everything in place;
the sacrifice shall be when the sun has risen.
Tell the princes now:
today indeed is the last night."
