Hath shone forth, the heavenly guest, propitious for us.<br />
f O ye waters divine, accept these ashes;<br />
Place them on a resting-place, in the fragrant region<br />
To him may the ladies with noble spouses bow;<br />
Like a mother her son, do ye kindly bear him.<br />
g In the waters, O Agni, is thy seat [2],<br />
Thou enterest the plants;<br />
Being in the germ thou art born again.<br />
h Thou art the germ of plants,<br />
The germ of trees,<br />
The germ of all things,<br />
O Agni, thou art the germ of the waters.<br />
i With ashes having satisfied thy birthplace<br />
And the waters, on the earth, O Agni,<br />
In unison with thy mothers,<br />
Full of light hast thou again taken thy seat.<br />
k Having again come to thy seat,<br />
And to the waters, to the earth, O Agni,<br />
Within her thou liest, most auspicious,<br />
As on the lap of a mother.<br />
l Return with strength [3],<br />
Return, O Agni, with food and life;<br />
Again guard us on all sides.<br />
m Return with wealth,<br />
O Agni, fatten with the stream,<br />
All-gaining on every side.<br />
n May the Adityas, the Rudras, the Vasus, kindle thee again;<br />
The Brahmans again with offerings, O bringer of wealth;<br />
With ghee do thou increase our bodies;<br />
May the wishes of the sacrificer become true.<br />
o Hearken to this our call, that is offered, O youngest one,<br />
Of the most generous one, O thou that hast power;<br />
One hateth, one praiseth.<br />
As praiser I praise thy body, O Agni.<br />
p Be thou a bounteous patron,<br />
Giver of riches, lord of riches;<br />
Repel from us the foes.<br />
[[4-2-4]]<br />
a Go hence depart, creep away, hence,<br />
Ye that are here of old and ye that are new,<br />
Yama hath given this resting-place of earth,<br />
The Pitrs have made this world for him.<br />
b Thou art the ash of Agni, thou art the dust of Agni.<br />
c Thou art accord, fulfilling love; in me be the fulfilling of thy love.<br />
d Be united your dear bodies,<br />
Be united your dear hearts,<br />
Be your breath united [1],<br />
United my body.<br />
e This is that Agni in whom as a belly<br />
Indra placed the pressed Soma eagerly;<br />
Thou art praised, O all-knower, for winning<br />
Booty a thousandfold, like a swift steed.<br />
f O Agni, thou comest to the wave of the sky,<br />
