This verse is not included in this edition.

Like cars that thunder on their way, like coursers eager for renown, Have Soma-drops flowed forth for wealth.

This verse is not included in this edition.

Forth have they rushed from holding hands, like chariots that are urged to speed, Like joyful songs of singing-men.

rājāno na praśastibhiḥ somāso gobhir añjate yajño na sapta dhātṛbhiḥ

The Somas deck themselves with milk, as Kings are graced with eulogies, And, with seven priests, the sacrifice.

pari suvānāsa indavo madāya barhaṇā girā sutā arṣanti dhārayā

Pressed for the gladdening draught, the drops flow forth abundantly with song, The Soma juices in a stream.

āpānāso vivasvato jananta uṣaso bhagam sūrā aṇvaṃ vi tanvate

Winning Vivasvan's glory and producing Morning's light, the Suns Pass through the openings of the cloth.

apa dvārā matīnām pratnā ṛṇvanti kāravaḥ vṛṣṇo harasa āyavaḥ

The singing-men of ancient time open the doors of sacred songs,- Men, for the mighty to accept.

samīcīnāsa āsate hotāraḥ saptajāmayaḥ padam ekasya piprataḥ

Combined in close society sit the seven priests, the brother-hood, Filling the station of the One.

nābhā nābhiṃ na ā dade cakṣuś cit sūrye sacā kaver apatyam ā duhe

He gives us kinship with the Gods, and with the Sun unites our eye: The Sage's offspring hath appeared.

abhi priyā divas padam adhvaryubhir guhā hitam sūraḥ paśyati cakṣasā

The Sun with his dear eye beholds that quarter of the heavens which priests Have placed within the sacred cell.
