a Great is Indra of the Sodaçin,<br />

With the bolt in his arm, may he grant protection;<br />

May the bountiful give us prosperity,<br />

May he smite him who hateth us.<br />

b Thou art taken with a support; to Indra of the Sodaçin thee! This is thy birthplace; to Indra of the<br />

Sodaçin thee!<br />

[[1-4-42]]<br />

a In unison and in fellowship with the Maruts, Indra,<br />

Drink the Soma, O slayer of Vrtra, O hero, O wise one;<br />

Slay our foes, drive away the enemies,<br />

And thus make for us on all sides security.<br />

b Thou art taken with a support; to Indra of the Sodaçin thee! This is thy birthplace; to Indra of the<br />

Sodaçin thee!<br />

The Daksina Offerings<br />

a His rays bear up the god<br />

Who knoweth all,<br />

The sun for all to see.<br />

b The radiant countenance of the gods hath risen,<br />

The eye of Mitra, Varuna, Agni;<br />

He hath filled the sky and earth and atmosphere;<br />

The sun is the self of all that moveth and standeth.<br />

c O Agni, lead us by a fair path to wealth,<br />

O god, knowing all the ways;<br />

Drive from us the sin that maketh us wander;<br />

We will accord to thee most abundant honour.<br />

d Go to the sky, fly to heaven.<br />

c With my form [1] I approach your form; with my age your age.<br />

f May Tutha, all knowing, allot to you in the highest firmament.<br />

g This gift of thine, Agni, cometh, impelled by the Soma.<br />

h Lead it by the path of Mitra.<br />

i Go ye on by the path of holy order, of brilliant gifts,<br />

Leading prosperity by the path of the sacrifice.<br />

k May I win a Brahman to-day, a seer and sprung from seers, of (famous) father and grandfather, fit<br />

for the sacrificial gift.<br />

l Gaze on the heaven, gaze on the atmosphere.<br />

m Join those in the seat.<br />

n Given by us, go to the gods, full of sweetness; enter the giver; without leaving us fare by the path<br />

leading to the gods; sit in the world of the righteous.<br />

o Be this complete for us.<br />

[[1-4-44]]<br />

a May Dhatr the giver, may Savitr, rejoice in this,<br />

Prajapati, the lord of treasures, and Agni, for our sake;<br />

May Tvastr, Visnu, accord generously<br />

Wealth with offspring to the sacrificer.<br />

b O Indra, unite us in heart, with cattle,<br />

O bountiful one, with generous ones, with prosperity;<br />

With the holy power that is made by the gods,<br />

With loving kindness of the gods to whom sacrifice is made.<br />
