Make me aware, O bounteous one, of that glory which Vasistha venerates and praises. May this mighty ritual bring forth the sacred truth; grant my wish from the holy rites.

Understand thoroughly, Maghavan, this my speech, this praise of you, which Vasiṣṭha recites; bepleased by these prayers at the sacrifice.

Mark closely, Maghavan, the words I utter, this eulogy recited by Vasistha: Accept the prayers I offer at thy banquet.
