O sage, eulogising thus, the gods worshipped the Sacrificial Being in accordance with the rules governing the same with the complete rites (saṃpūrṇavidhi) [yajñoktena vidhānena saṃpūrṇavidhayo]. Then from the sacrificial pit rose up thousands of Bhūtas of huge size and armed with tridents, spears, iron clubs and other weapons. [...]”.
