Should the wise ask the far-off or the ignorant ask the wise? Truly the mortal does not call; he did not hear.
Thus may an ignorant man inquire the means of worshipping the all-wise, for every (one) other (than the Aśvins) is unknowing; they, the unconquered, quickly(show favour) to the man (who worships them).
Here let the ignorant ask the means of you who know-for none beside you knoweth aught - Not of a spiritless mortal man.
