Not diversely are our thoughts or the rites of men varied. The craftsman, the wise healer Brahma, desires to make sound the songs that flow around Indra.
Various are our acts, (various) are the occupations of men; the carpenter desires timber, the physician disease, the brāhmaṇa a worshipper who effuses Soma; flow, Indu for Indra.
WE all have various thoughts and plans, and diverse are the ways of men. The Brahman seeks the worshipper, wright seeks the cracked, and leech the maimed. Flow, Indu, flow for Indra's sake.
