42. And having returned (to the fire-altar), he performs the oblations to Vishvakarman;—This Agni(-cayana) indeed (includes) all sacrificial rites (vishvani karmani); and all these its rites have been performed in this (agnicayana): he now gratifies them, and makes them a deity by means of an offering of sacrificial food; for only that one is a deity, for whom an oblation is prepared, but not one for whom it is not (prepared). Moreover, this Agni is Vishvakarman (the all-worker): it is him he thereby gratifies.
