AVŚ 8.9.6

वैश्वानरस्य प्रतिमोपरि द्यौर् यावद् रोदसी विबबाधे अग्निः । ततः षष्ठाद् आमुतो यन्ति स्तोमा उद् इतो यन्त्य् अभि षष्ठम् अह्नः ॥६॥

vaiśvānarasya pratimopari dyaur yāvad rodasī vibabādhe agniḥ | tataḥ ṣaṣṭhād āmuto yanti stomā ud ito yanty abhi ṣaṣṭham ahnaḥ ||6||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Vāiçvānara's counterpart [is] the sky above, as far as Agni forced (bādh) apart the two firmaments; from that sixth yonder come the sómas; up from here they go unto the sixth of the day.
