बृहस्पतिर् उवाच
त्वम् अग्ने सर्वदेवानां मुखं त्वम् असि हव्यवाट् ॥
त्वम् अन्तः सर्वभूतानां गूढश् चरसि साक्षिवत् ॥
त्वाम् आहुर् एकं कवयस् त्वाम् आहुस् त्रिविधं पुनः ॥
त्वया त्यक्तं जगच् चेदं सद्यो नश्येद् धुताशन ॥
कृत्वा तुभ्यं नमो विप्राः स्वकर्मविजितां गतिम् ॥
गच्छन्ति सह पत्नीभिः सुतैर् अपि च शाश्वतीम् ॥
त्वम् एवाग्ने हव्यवाहस् त्वम् एव परमं हविः ॥
यजन्ति सत्रैस् त्वाम् एव यज्ञैश् च परमाध्वरे ॥
सृष्ट्वा लोकांस् त्रीन् इमान् हव्यवाह; प्राप्ते काले पचसि पुनः समिद्धः ॥
सर्वस्यास्य भुवनस्य प्रसूतिस्; त्वम् एवाग्ने भवसि पुनः प्रतिष्ठा ॥

Brihaspati said: 'You are the mouth of all the gods, O Agni. You are the bearer of sacred offerings. You, as a witness, have access to the inner souls of all beings. Poets call you the one and again the threefold. O devourer of oblations, should the universe be abandoned by you, it would perish at once. Brahmins, bowing to you, together with their wives and sons, attain the eternal realm, the reward of their worthy deeds. O Agni, it is you who bears the sacred offerings. You, O Agni, are yourself the finest offering. In the sacrificial rite of the highest order, it is you who are worshipped with unceasing gifts and offerings. O bearer of offerings, having created the three worlds, you, when the hour comes, will consume them again in your unquenched form. You are the mother of the whole universe; and again you, O Agni, are its culmination.'

This passage (5.16.1-5) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort for peace is already under way against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Dharma is revealed here through speech, the choice of envoys, faithfulness to promises, and the responsibility kings bear for the consequences of their decisions.
