With four and ninety names the wheel turned, not ceasing, through fortune and peril. The mighty-bodied seer spoke these hymns among the youthful singers and returned them to the oblation.
He causes, by his gyrations, ninety and four periodical revolutions, like a circular wheel, vast of body, and evolving in many forms, through the praises (addressed to him); ever young, though not infantine, he comes at our invocations.
He, like a rounded wheel, hath in swift motion set his ninety racing steeds together with the four. Developed, vast in form, with those who sing forth praise, a youth, no more a child, he cometh to our call.
