These three, O Agni, of the autumn, have purified you with ghee, the spotless ones accompanying the rites. They set names and the rites arose; the well-born grew bright, their bodies fashioned anew.

Inasmuch, Agni, as the pure (Maruts) worshipped you, (equally) pure, with clarified butter for three years, therefore they acquired names worthy (to be treated) at sacrifice, and, being regenerated obtained celestial bodies.

Because with holy oil the pure Ones, Agni, served thee the very pure three autumn seasons, Therefore they won them holy names for worship, and nobly born they dignified their bodies.
