Sanskrit Original
देवदानवगन्धर्वाः पिशाचोरगराक्षसाः। हाहाहूहूच गन्धर्वो तुम्बुरु रदस्तथा॥ विश्वावसुर्विश्वसेनो गन्धर्वाप्सरसस्तथा। आदित्या वसवो रुद्राः साध्याः सह मरुद्गणैः॥ इन्द्रेण सहिताः सर्वे आगता यज्ञभागिनः। उष्मपाः सोमपाश्चैव धूमपा आज्यपास्तथा॥ ऋषयः पितरश्चैव आगता ब्रह्मणा सह। एते चान्ये च बहवो भूतग्रामाश्चतुर्विधाः॥ जरायुजाण्डजाश्चैव सहसा स्वेदजोद्भिजैः। आहूता मन्त्रिताः सर्वे देवाश्च सह पत्निभिः॥ विराजन्ते विमानस्था दीप्यमाना इवाग्नयः।

These, and many other living creatures belonging to the four orders, viz., viviparous and oviparous and fifth-born and vegetable, were invited to that Sacrifice. The gods also, with their wives respectfully invited thereto, came on their celestial cars and seated thereon shone like burning fires.
