• ahate — unused (new)
  Past participle (a-hata) — 'not struck,' i.e. never worn. Pure cloth for the post-bath state. Even ordinary materials enter the yajña's sacred economy: nothing already used touches the just-bathed body.
• kṣaume — a pair of silken garments
  Linen/silk garments — the ritually clean wear. Gauḍīyas note that external purity is honored, but its function is to mirror, not replace, internal purity.
• ṛtvik-sadasya-vipra-ādīn — the priests, assembly members, brāhmaṇas and others
  Quadruple compound — Yudhiṣṭhira's gratitude order. He honors the yajña's specialists FIRST, before his own kin. Sevā-priority reveals the heart.
• ānarca — he worshiped
  Perfect of √arc (to honor with formal worship). Not 'rewarded' — worshiped. The brāhmaṇas are not employees; they are an arcā for Yudhiṣṭhira.

• Where do I receive without remembering to give equally?
• What gift in matching measure could I extend today?

After a long yajña, the host's first act on rising from the bath is to clothe the priests, not himself — the deepest sign that the sacrifice did its inner work. A man who insists on dressing himself first has not been changed by his own ritual.
