Sanskrit Original
अनू॑नो॒दत्र॒ हस्त॑यतो॒ अद्रि॒रार्च॒न्येन॒ दश॑ मा॒सो नव॑ग्वाः । ऋ॒तं य॒ती स॒रमा॒ गा अ॑विन्द॒द्विश्वा॑नि स॒त्याङ्गि॑राश्चकार
anūnodatra hastayato adrirārcanyena daśa māso navagvāḥ ṛtaṃ yatī saramā gā avindadviśvāni satyāṅgirāścakāra
They set down hands here, striking the mountain; ten months and nine days they kept watch. The firm law went, the swift joined, and Saramā spread the true commands everywhere.
At this sacrifice the stone (set in motion) by the hands (of the priests) makes a noise, whereby the nine-months ministrants celebrated the ten-months worship; when Saramā, going to the ceremony, discovered the cattle, and Aṅgiras rendered all the rites effective.
Here, urged by hands, loudly hath rung the press-stone wherewith Navagvas through ten months sang praises. Sarama went aright and found the cattle. Angiras gave effect to all their labours.
