KHANDA 6. 1. One who has not set up the (sacred Srauta) fires, when setting out on a journey, looks at his house. 2. (He murmurs the text,) 'Do ye both, Mitra and Varuna, protect this house for me; unscathed, undisturbed, may Pûshan guard it till our return;' 3. And murmurs (the verse), 'Upon the path we have entered' (Rig-veda VI, 51, 16).
