इ॒दमु॑द॒कं पि॑ब॒तेत्य॑ब्रवीतने॒दं वा॑ घा पिबता मुञ्ज॒नेज॑नम् । सौध॑न्वना॒ यदि॒ तन्नेव॒ हर्य॑थ तृ॒तीये॑ घा॒ सव॑ने मादयाध्वै
idamudakaṃ pibatetyabravītanedaṃ vā ghā pibatā muñjanejanam saudhanvanā yadi tanneva haryatha tṛtīye ghā savane mādayādhvai
He said: 'Drink this sweet draught' or 'this whey, drink thou with the millet-sown folk.' If the sacrificer thus leads it, then in the third pressing sing forth the draught for the ritual.
They, (the gods), have said, sons of Sudhanvan, drink of this water, (the Soma); or drink that which has been filtered through the muñja grass; or, if you be plural ased with neither of these, be exhilarated (by that which is drunk) at the third (daily) sacrifice.
Drink ye this water, were the words ye spake to them; or drink ye this, the rinsing of the Munja-grass. If ye approve not even this, Sudhanvan's Sons, then at the third libation gladden ye yourselves.
