sarpirjatumadhūcchiṣṭānāmagnisaṁyōgād dravatvamadbhiḥ sāmānyam ॥6॥

[सर्पिः जतु मधु उच्छिष्टानाम् अग्नि संयोगात् द्रवत्वम् अद्भिः सामान्यम्॥
sarpiḥ = clarified butter; jatu = wax; madhu = honey; ucchiṣṭānām = remnants; agni = fire; saṁyōgāt = by union with; dravatvam = liquid-ness; adbhiḥ = by; sāmānyam = their generality॥]

The remains of clarified butter, wax, and honey - by union with fire, gains "liquid-ness", because of their generality, i.e. common property.
