2. [Vajasaneyi Samhita XII, 1; Rik S. X, 45, 8] “Looking like a golden disk he hath shone far and wide,”—for that gold plate, being seen, indeed shines far and wide;—“flashing forth unquenchable life for glory,”—for not easily dying is his (Agni's) life (vital power); and for glory he does shine;—“Agni became immortal by his powers, when Dyaus bore him—,” for Dyaus (the sky) did bear him;—“she that hath good seed—,” for good seed indeed she has whose seed he (Agni) is.
