a The strength resting on the stone, the bill, On the wind, on Parjanya, on the breath of Varuna, Brought together from the waters, from the plants, from the trees; That food and strength do ye, O Maruts, bounteously bestow upon us. b In the stone is thy hunger; let thy pain reach N. N., whom we hate. c With the wind of the ocean We envelop thee, O Agni; Be thou purifying and auspicious to us. d With the caul of winter We envelop thee, O Agni; Be thou purifying and auspicious to us. e Down upon earth [1], upon the reed, Upon the waters lower (do thou descend); Thou, O Agni, art the bile of the waters, f O female frog, with these come hither; Do thou make this sacrifice of ours Pure in hue and auspicious. g Pure, with radiance wonderful, On earth he hath shone as with the light of dawn. h Who (cometh) to battle, PRAPATHAKA VI Moving with strength as on Etaça's course, In the heat unathirst, immortal. i O Agni, the purifying, with thy light, O god, with thy pleasant tongue, Bring hither the gods [2], and sacrifice. k Do thou, O shining and purifying one, O Agni, bring hither the gods To our sacrifice and our oblation. 1 This is the meeting of the waters, The abode of the ocean; May thy bolts afflict another than us; Be thou purifying and auspicious to us. m Homage to thy heat, thy blaze Homage be to thy light; May thy bolts afflict another than us; Be thou purifying and auspicious to us. n To him that sitteth in man, hail!

Who alone assigneth their names to the gods, Him other beings approach for knowledge. d Wealth they won by offering to him The seers of old like singers in abundance, They who fashioned these beings illumined and unillumined In the expanse of space. e Ye shall not find him who produced this world; Another thing shall be betwixt you; Enveloped in mist and with stammering The singers of hymns move enjoying life. f Beyond the sky, beyond this [2] earth, Beyond the gods, what is secret from the Asuras, What germ first did the waters bear, When all the gods came together? g This germ the waters first bore, When all the gods came together; On the navel of the unborn is set the one On which doth rest all this world. h Viçvakarman, the god, was born; Then second the Gandharva; Third the father, begetter of plants [31 In many a place did he deposit the germ of the waters. i Father of the eye, the sage with his mind, Produced these two worlds rich in ghee, When the fore ends were made firm, Then did sky and earth extend. k With eyes on every side, with a face on every side, With hands on every side, with feet on every side, The one god producing sky and earth Welds them together with arms, with wings. l What was the basis? Which and what his support? When producing earth [4] Viçvakarman, all−seeing, Disclosed the sky with his might. m What was the wood, and what the tree, Whence they formed sky and earth? O ye wise ones, inquire with your minds On what he stood as he supported the worlds. n Thy highest, lowest, Midmost abodes here, O Viçvakarman, In the offering do thou teach thy comrades, O faithful one; Do thou thyself sacrifice to thyself, rejoicing. o The lord of speech, Viçvakarman, Let us invoke this day to aid us [5], thought yoked for strength, May he delight in our nearest offerings, He with all healing, to aid (us), the doer of good deeds. p O Viçvakarman, waxing great with the oblation, Do thou thyself sacrifice to thyself rejoicing; May the others around, our foes, be confused; May our patrons here be rich. q O Viçvakarman, with the oblation as strengthening,

a O Agni, to whom ghee is offered, Do thou lead him forward; Unite him with increase of wealth, With offspring and with wealth. b O Indra, bring him to the fore, That he may be lord over his fellows; Unite him with splendour, That he may assign their shares to the gods. c Him, O Agni, do thou exalt In whose house we make the offering; To him may the gods lend aid, And he the lord of holy power. d May the All−gods thee [1], O Agni, bear up with their thoughts; Be thou to us most propitious, With kindly face, abounding in light. e May the five regions divine aid the sacrifice, The goddesses driving away poverty and hostility, And giving to the lord of the sacrifice increase of wealth. In increase of wealth the sacrifice hath been established, Waxing great on the kindled fire, Grasped with hymns as wings, to be adored; They sacrificed embracing the heated cauldron. g When with strength the gods laboured at the sacrifice For the divine supporter, the enjoyer, Serving the gods, benign, with a hundred drinks (was it); The gods kept embracing the sacrifice [2]. h With the rays of the sun, with tawny hair, Savitr hath raised before (us) his unending light; On his instigation fareth Pusan the god, The guardian, gazing on all things. i The gods stand serving as priests for the gods; Ready (is it) for the immolator, let the immolator sacrifice; Where the fourth offering goeth to the oblation, Thence let our pure invocations be accepted. k As measurer he standeth in the midst of the sky, Filling the two worlds and the atmosphere; The all−reaching [3], the butter−reaching, he discerneth, Between the eastern and the western mark.

Eye of gods and mortals; Pressing on in unison with the Bhrgus, Let the sacrificers go to heaven, to prosperity. f Night and the dawn, one−minded, but of various form, United suckle one child; The radiant one shineth between sky and earth; The gods, granters of wealth, support Agni. g O Agni, of a thousand eyes [2], of a hundred heads, A hundred are thy expirations, a thousand thine inspirations; Thou art lord of wealth a thousandfold; To thee as such let us pay homage for strength, hail! h Thou art the winged bird, sit on the earth; sit on the ridge of earth; with thy blaze fill the atmosphere, with thy light establish the sky, with thy brilliance make firm the quarters. i Receiving offering, fair of face, O Agni; Sit down in front in thine own birthplace, in due order; In this higher place, O All−gods [3], do ye sit with the sacrificer. k Enkindled, O Agni, shine before us, O most youthful, with unfailing beam; Ever upon thee strength awaiteth. I Let us pay homage to thee in thy highest birth, O Agni; Let us pay homage with praises in thy lower abode; The place of birth whence thou didst come, to that I offer; In thee when kindled they offered the oblations. m That various lovingkindness given to all men, Of Savitr the adorable, I choose, That mighty fat cow of his which Kanva milked, Streaming with a thousand (draughts) of milk [4]. n Seven are thy kindling−sticks, O Agni, seven thy tongues, Seven seers, seven dear abodes; Seven Hotras sevenfold sacrifice to thee Seven birthplaces with ghee do thou fill. o Such like, other like, thus like, similar, measured, commensurate, harmonious; p Of pure radiance, of varied radiance, of true radiance, the radiant, true, protector of holy order, beyond distress [5]; q Winning holy order, winning truth, host−conquering, having a good host, with foes within, with foes afar, the troop; r Holy order, true, secure, supporting, supporter, upholder, upholding; s Such like, thus like, do ye come to us, similar and equal. t Measured and commensurate, to aid us, harmonious, at this sacrifice, O Maruts. u On Indra attend the divine folk, the Maruts; even as the divine folk, the Maruts, attend on Indra, so may the folk divine and human, attend on this sacrificer.

Let the might of thine armour protect thee. b By the bow cows, by the bow the contest may we win, By the bow dread battles may we win; The bow doth work displeasure to the foe; By the bow let us win in all the quarters. c As if about to speak it approacheth the ear, Embracing its dear comrade, Like a woman this bowstring twangeth stretched over the bow [1], Saving in the battle. d They coming together as a maiden to the assembly, As a mother her child, shall bear (the arrow) in their lap; In unison shall they pierce the foes, These two ends springing asunder, the enemies. e Father of many (daughters), many his sons, He whizzeth as he goeth to battle, The quiver, slung on the back, yielding its content, Doth conquer every band and army. f Standing on the chariot be guideth his steeds before him Wheresoever he desireth, good charioteer; The might of the reins [2] do ye admire; The reins behind obey the mind (of the driver). g Shrilly the strong−hooved horses neigh, As with the cars they show their strength; Trampling with their forefeet the enemy They unflinchingly destroy the foe. h The chariot−bearer is his oblation by name, Where is deposited his armour and his weapon; Then may we sit on the strong car, All the days, with friendly hearts. i The fathers with pleasant seats, granting strength, A support in trouble mighty and profound, With varied hosts, with arrows to strengthen them, free, With real heroes, broad conquerors of hosts. k The Brahmans [3], the fathers worthy of the Soma, And sky and earth, unequalled be propitious to us; May Pusan guard us from misfortune, us that prosper holy order Do thou guard; may no foe overpower us. I A feather her garment, a deer her tooth, Tied with cowhide she flieth shot forth; Where men run together and apart, There may the arrows accord us protection. m O thou of straight path, avoid us; Be our body as of stone May Soma favour us, And Aditi [4] grant protection! n Their backs it smites, Their thighs it belabours; O horse−whip, do ye stimulate The skilled horses in the battles. o Like a snake with its coils it encircleth his arm, Fending off the friction of the bowstring,
