In thee have they placed food, rich in seed,<br />

Of wondrous aid, of prosperous birth.<br />

h With pure radiance, with bright radiance,<br />

With undiminished radiance, thou comest forth with thy light;<br />

Visiting thy parents thou aidest them;<br />

Thou fillest both worlds.<br />

i The righteous, the bull, common to all men,<br />

Agni, men place before them for favour,<br />

Thee with their speech, that art ready to hear and most extending,<br />

The divine, the generations of men.<br />

k Preparer of the sacrifice, the wise,<br />

Who ruleth for great gain,<br />

The giver of the Bhrgus, the eager, skilled in the sacrifice<br />

Thou fillest glorious wealth.<br />

l Ye are pilers, ye are pilers around, do ye pile upwards as a support,<br />

with that deity, sit ye firm in the manner of Angiras.<br />

m Swell up, let thy strength be gathered<br />

From all sides, O Soma.<br />

Be strong in the gathering of might.<br />

n Let thy milk draughts, thy strength be united,<br />

The mightinesses of him who overcometh the foe;<br />

Swelling for immortality, O Soma,<br />

Place in the sky the highest glories,<br />

[[4-2-8]]<br />

a He hath overcome every foe, every enemy;<br />

That Agni saith, that saith Soma too;<br />

Brhaspati, Savitr, say this of me,<br />

Pusan hath placed me in the world of good action.<br />

b When first thou didst cry on birth,<br />

Arising from the ocean or the dust,<br />

The wings of the eagle, the limbs of the gazelle,<br />

That is thy famed birth, O steed.<br />

c Thou art the back of the waters, the birthplace of Agni,<br />

The ocean swelling on either side;<br />

Growing to might [1] as the lotus flower,<br />

Do thou extend in width with the measure of heaven.<br />

d The holy power born first in the east<br />

Vena hath disclosed from the shining boundary,<br />

He hath revealed its fundamental nearest forms,<br />

The womb of being and of not being.<br />

e The golden germ first rose;<br />

Born he was the only lord of creation;<br />

He supporteth the earth and the sky;<br />

To what god shall we offer with oblation.<br />

f The drop hath fallen on the earth [2], the sky,<br />

On this seat, and on the one which was aforetime;<br />

The drop that wandereth over the third seat<br />

I offer in the seven Hotras.<br />

g Homage to the serpents<br />

Which are on the earth,<br />

The serpents in the atmosphere, in the sky,<br />

To those serpents homage.<br />

h Those that are there in the vault of the sky,<br />
