By tomorrow early morning arrange in the place set aside for sacred fire in the king's palace gold and other metals, gems, articles of worship, also herbs, garlands of white flowers, roasted corn, honey and clarified butter in separate containers, fresh clothes, chariot, weapons of every kind, army of four divisions, an elephant possessing auspicious marks, white fans made of Yak's hair, a standard, white parasol, a hundred golden vessels shining like fire, a bull with goldplated horns and a tiger skin.
— M.N. Dutt (1891)
The instructions continue: specific metals and gems for the sacred fire. Each substance corresponds to a different cosmic principle. The verse conveys the richness and solemnity of Vedic royal consecration — nothing is ordinary in a ceremony that binds heaven and earth.
