[[1-1-1]] [[Book-Chapter-Paragraph]] - Sanskrit Web

For thou art true, wondrous,
The giver of booty of kine.
v To Agni let us make service with hymns,
Who feedeth on bull and cow,
The disposer, backed with Soma.
w For thou art, O son, a singer, seated at the feast;
Agni made at birth a path and food;
Do thou, O giver of strength, bestow strength upon us;
Be victorious like a king; thou rulest within without a foe.
x O Agni, thou purifiest life [7];
Do thou give food and strength to us;
Far away drive ill-fortune.
y O Agni, good worker, purify for us
Glory in good heroes;
Giving increase and wealth to me.
z O Agni the purifying, with thy light,
0 god, with thy pleasant tongue,
Bring hither the gods and sacrifice.
aa Do thou, O shining and purifying one,
O Agni, bring hither the gods
To our sacrifice and our oblation.
bb Agni, of purest vows,
Pure sage, pure poet,
Shineth in purity, when offering is made.
cc O Agni, thy pure,
Bright, flaming (rays) arise,
Thy lights, thy flames.

PRAPATHAKA IV
The Soma Cups
a I take thee. Thou art the stone which maketh the sacrifice for the gods; make this sacrifice deep,
with thy highest edge, (make) the Soma well pressed for Indra, rich in sweetness, in milk, bringing
rain.
b To Indra, slayer of Vrtra, thee! To Indra, conqueror of Vrtra, thee! To Indra, slayer of foes, thee!
To Indra with the Adityas, thee! To Indra with the all-gods, thee!
c Ye are savoury, conquerors of Vrtra, delightful through your gifts, spouses of immortality,
Do ye, O goddesses, place this sacrifice among the gods
Do ye, invoked, drink the Soma;
Invoked by you [1] let Soma drink.
d With thy light which is in the sky, on the earth, in the broad atmosphere, do thou for this sacrificer
spread wealth broadly; be favour able to the giver.
c Ye Dhisanas, that are strong, be strengthened; gather strength, and give me strength; let me not
harm you, harm me not.
f Forward, backward, upward, downward, let these quarters speed to you; O mother, come forth.
g Thy unerring, watchful name, O Soma, to that of thee, O Soma, to Soma, hail!
[[1-4-2]]
a Be pure for the lord of speech, O strong one; male, purified by the arms with the shoots of the
male; thou art the god purifier of gods; to those thee whose portion thou art!
b Thou art he who is appropriated; make our food full of sweetness for us; to all the powers of sky
