tat - that; śrutvā - hearing; ājuhuvuḥ - they performed the ritual of offering oblation; viprāḥ - the brāhmaṇa priests; saha - along with; indram - King Indra; takṣakam - the snake-bird Takṣaka; makhe - into the sacrificial fire; takṣaka - O Takṣaka; āśu - quickly; patasva - you should fall; iha - here; saha indreṇa - together with Indra; marut-vatā - who is accompanied by all the demigods.

Hearing this, the priests then chanted this mantra for offering Takṣaka together with Indra as an oblation into the sacrificial fire: O Takṣaka, fall immediately into this fire, together with Indra and his entire host of demigods!
